One of my favourite exotic chinese weapons is the twin hooksword. It is a twin sword as they are used in pairs with chinese wushu techniques - combining chinese sword (jian) techniques while making most use of the weapon's ability of defending and attacking at the same time.
The hooksword is an ingenous and beautiful weapon, highly affective in combat. Hooksword techniques includes controlled speed whilst incorporating turning and twining - as chinese sword techniques would. Hooking and trapping with its' hooks, blocking and striking with the crescent blade and stabbing with the sharp point at the back end of the sword.
