Introduction To Shovel

The shovel evolved from a production tool into a weapon and martial arts weapon in ancient warfare. There was a bronze shovel in the Shang Dynasty in China, and a shovel was used during the Warring States Period.

Shovel was also a weapon accompanied by ancient people and monks. The shovel head is generally made of iron, but the poles are made of wood or iron. The shovel is six or seven feet long. The head is one foot and two inches long, flat and crescent-shaped, with the crescent facing upwards, the blade is thin and sharp, and becomes thicker towards the back. A sleeve is connected to the handle at the bottom. The tail of the shovel handle is equipped with a drill, which can be used as a puncture point.

Some shovel heads have a hole in each corner of the bottom, and a thick iron ring is placed on it, which makes the sound of dancing to increase its power. The main methods of attack include pushing, pressing, patting, supporting, rolling, shoveling, cutting, picking, pushing, splitting, punching, shaking and so on. There are boys worshiping Buddha, oolong wagging their tails, Erlang Danshan, and going out of the mountain gate. Use more postures during the exercise, with a unique style.
