These chucks are the perfect balance of the right weight chain, the right weight sticks and a wonderfully efficient ball bearing system. The weight is perfect which makes these chucks wonderfully fun and fluid to use.
Of all my nunchakus these are my favorite. You may want to tap the surface down with a hammer to make them feel more compact.

Super light and fast, if your looking for a super speed chuck go for these. So light though that they respond much differently than a heavier chuck like the carved dragon. Not a good physics teacher, but quick with their super low weight.

These chucks boast a beautifully ornate dragon that is carved into both sticks, with a red plastic jewel marking the sweet spot. I purchased them because of the design and discovered a few thing along the way. The carvings are pretty but cut deep into the wood, they dig into your hands and are wonderful if your trying to build calluses. The handling is similar to a baseball bat at full speed, the heavy chain shifts the balance off a bit but helps greatly with strength training. Train with this sort and move to something smaller and I think you will be most impressed with your newfound speed.

i recently bought these san-setsu-kon nunchucks after focusing on nunchucks for about a year now and found them rather easy to pick up. i dont recomend them for someone who doesnt understand the physics of a traditional nunchuck. but other than that they are a lot of fun and much more versatile that the 2 piece. i would like to have seen a ball bearing and chain connection on these instead of the cord but its fairly easy to replace when it breaks. which if you use them constantly is about once every 2 weeks. all in all i enjoy them thoroughly but a ball bearing chain would make them awsome.
