Weapons - Trident
叉
and
三叉戟
Other names: Hunting Tiger
Trident |
Note:
(1) a separate
set of webpages for forks has been added - it includes the Ox
Head Trident |
(2) when we
finally found blue tassels we changed the color here. The red
tassel normally indicates a simple weapon |
for beginners. The
red tassel was used here instead of white ONLY for visual impact
during photography. |
In some Hung Gar
styles and in some other martial arts the sharpened
trident is always designated with a blue tassel |
and is racked at
the leftmost edge of the most convenient rack. It is used by the
teacher when it is felt there is a danger |
to the students. |
Versions
taught: Hung Gar (Grandmaster Wing Lam); |
Recommendations: learn spear and staff
first. Cost: varies from $70 to $90. More than $200 for combat
steel |
