Which item is a traditional martial arts weapon consisting of two or three wooden sticks joined by a cord?

• A. Sergeant
• B. Silhouette
• C. Rendezvous
• D. Nunchaku

Answer: (D)

This item tests your ability to identify a traditional martial arts weapon by its physical description. A weapon made of two or three wooden sticks joined by a cord is the nunchaku. Its characteristic setup—two short wooden sticks linked by a rope or chain—allows rapid spinning and swinging, a hallmark of this Okinawan weapon used in karate and kobudo. The other terms don’t describe weapons: a sergeant is a military rank, a silhouette is simply an outline or shape, and rendezvous means a meeting. So the item that matches the description of two or three wooden sticks tied together is the nunchaku.
