a close-up from Wing Lam Enterprises
recording VHG-37 -
the Hung Gar set for Heaven General Nine Point Rake dated 2005. This weapon is also one of the 53 weapons of Choy Li Fut
(see the list on the plum blossom website). The lighting could
have been better during the recording (see below for a frame
grab - close-up and cropped on the left). This is clear enough
(barely) to show four tines aligned parallel with the axis of
the hande and five tines aligned perpendicular to the axis of
the handle. The tines are all practical looking
as if the rake just came from the fields. Note
that there is nothing on the handle. |
