ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Kyoketsu-shoge

Kyoketsu-shoge is a special weapon used in Japanese martial arts. It looks like a rope with a sharp blade and a hook at the end.

Think about it like a really cool toy that can be used to catch things and defend yourself!

The blade part is used to cut things and the hook can be used to grab onto things like your opponent's weapon or their body. The rope part of the weapon is used to wrap around your opponent's arms or legs to control them or trip them up.

But it's really important to remember that this is not a toy and should only be used by people who have been trained in how to use it safely and correctly. So, if you see one of these, don't touch it without permission or supervision!
