This matched set of two clubs each consists of two segments of polished crimson rosewood, each about ten inches long and one inch thick, connected by a single chain link of dark steel. When used, the clubs are twirled around the arms and body to disorient the opponent as to when the strike is coming. By aiming for nerve centers, these weapon can inflict serious damage even when relatively little force is used.
In some monasteries where meditation is done during acts of extreme focus, clubs such as these are used as inverted pendulums to be balanced during meditation. This task requires very quick reactions and the ability to concentrate on multiple things at once, especially when holding one club in each hand.
