Bruce Lee’s Tan Nunchaku The Signature Weapon... Handcrafted in 1966 by artisan, George Lee, a close personal friend and student of Bruce Lee, these oak wood nunchaku were used on countless occasions by Bruce to perfect the matchless techniques he would later display in Fist of Fury, Way of the Dragon Enter the Dragon and Game of Death. Bruce preferred lightweight nunchaku to the more common heavier models and his remarkable reflexes and hand-eye coordination enabled him to control their movement at speeds that have defied all his imitators. These much-loved nunchaku were often used for deononstrations, and Bruce was intimately familiar with thier weight and size. Bruce first learned the art of the nunchaku from his now famous senior student Guru Dan Inosanto. Guru Dan was astounded at the speed with which Bruce perfected the art of nunchaku combat, as it normally takes years of dedicated study to reach the standard acheived by Bruce in a matter of months. A genuine pair of Bruce Lee’s nunchaku: the iconic weapon that helped to define his extraordinary legacy, persona and image for legions of adoring fans around the world. Ex George Lee
