    As long as you don't bring them into public, they are legal to make/own in the U.S.

    I just knocked the crap out my face.
    Community Answer
    This happens. Keep trying and work on technique prior to speed. Keep working at it and looking bad with your nunchucks will become second nature, no face-hitting involved.

    Can I defeat a person with a gun using nunchucks?

    Yes! While the person is distracted, whip out your nunchucks and hit the hand holding the gun to disarm him.

    As long as it's legal to own nunchucks where you live, sure.
  • Question
    I'm practicing wrist rolls, and I think that if I do any more, my wrist will get completely shredded by the chain. Any way to prevent this?
    Community Answer
    You can get a pair of nunchaku that have a cord or rope instead of a chain. Alternatively, you could wrap your wrist in sports tape for protection.

    It is not only okay, but highly encouraged to start with plastic nunchakus to minimize the risk of injury. Practice the main swings, starting at your right shoulder and swinging down towards your left hip while turning your body to avoid being in the path of the nunchaku. Once you understand the motions and footwork, you can move on to wood, and then metal if you prefer.
