Description
In the ancient Tamil martial art of Silambam, fighters would hit each other rapidly with bamboo sticks.
In the Japanese martial art Kendo, bamboo is used to make the Shinai sword.
Bamboo is used for crafting the world's longest bows, the Yumi, and the arrows used in the Japanese martial art Kyudo.
In traditional archery, the longbow and recurve bow limbs are sometimes crafted with flat ground bamboo, and also used to make superior weapons for bowhunting and target archery.
A bamboo stick can be made into a simple spear by sharpening one of the ends.
History's first gunpowder-based weapons, such as the fire lance, were made of bamboo
