Kung Fu Butterfly Swords Book by William Cheung (Preowned)

Kung Fu Butterfly Swords by William Cheung is a classic instructional and historical guide to one of Wing Chun Kung Fu’s most iconic weapons—the double butterfly swords (Baat Jam Do). Written by Grandmaster William Cheung, a direct student of Yip Man and one of the most recognized Wing Chun authorities, the book breaks down the principles, techniques, and fighting applications of this rare close-range blade system.

Inside, readers get a structured look at how the butterfly swords extend Wing Chun’s empty-hand concepts into armed combat, emphasizing speed, trapping, centerline control, and fluid transitions between offense and defense. The book also explores training methods, footwork, and practical applications, along with insights into how these weapons fit into the broader Wing Chun system.

Clear, direct, and rooted in traditional Southern Chinese martial arts, this volume is both a technical manual and a historical reference for practitioners, collectors, and anyone interested in authentic kung fu weapon training.
