Wing Chun Gung Fu: Explosive Art of Close Range Combat Book 5 by Randy Williams (Preowned)

This volume examines the system’s classical weapons, including the Luk Dim Boon Gwun (Six-and-a-Half Point Pole) and Baat Jaam Do (Eight-Cutting Knives/Butterfly Swords). Instruction focuses on weapon handling, footwork, positioning, power generation, coordination, and the relationship between weapons practice and Wing Chun’s empty-hand principles.

The book also covers Iron Palm training, presenting conditioning and power-development methods designed to strengthen the hands and improve striking ability. As the fifth volume in Randy Williams’ series, it provides advanced practitioners with a detailed look at some of the specialized training methods found within the Wing Chun system.
