[izmijeni] Legalnost
Posjedovanje nunčakua nije legalno u mnogim zemljama uključujući Kanadu, Njemačku, Dansku (*), Švedsku (*), Norvešku, Belgiju, Holandiju (*), Poljsku (*), Mađarsku (**), Švicarsku (*), Španiju, Francusku (**) i Veliku Britaniju (zakoni protiv nunčakua u UK su donekle popustili od 1991, however media scenes with nunchaku are still edited out by censors). Legalnost u Sjedinjenim Državama varies at state level, npr. lično posjedovanje nunčakua je nelegalno u New York-u, Arizoni, Kaliforniji i Massachusetts, ali u drugim državama posjedovanje nije kriminalno. Legalnost u Australiji je takođe određeno individualnim zakonima države. U New South Wales-u, the weapon is on the restricted weapons list, and thus can only be owned with a permit.

[izmijeni] Historija
Iako tačno porijeklo nunčakua nije poznato (kao s većinom oružja u historiji), najvjerovatnije je bilo izumljeno u kini ili okinavi. Japaneska riječ nunčaku dolazi od Min Nan riječi ng-chiat-kun (兩節棍). The popular belief is that the nunchaku was originally a short flail used to thresh rice (separate the grain from the husk). An alternate theory is that it was created by a martial artist attempting to conceal his staff from the current oppressive government by cutting it into three sections, creating what is commonly known today as a sansetsukon, and that nunchaku were derived from that weapon. It is also possible that the weapon was developed in response to the moratorium on edged weaponry under the Satsuma daimyo after invading Okinawa in the 17th century, and that the weapon was most likely conceived and used exclusively for that end, as the configuration of actual flails and bits are unwieldy for use as a weapon. Also, peasant farmers were forbidden conventional weaponry such as arrows or blades so they improvised using only what they had available, farm tools such as the oar. Regardless of the origin of the nunchaku, the modern weapon would be an ineffective rice flail.
Nunčaku kao oružje has surged in popularity od kada je majstor borilačkih vještina Bruce Lee koristio ih u svojim filmovima 1970tih. It is generally considered by martial artists to be a limited weapon. Complex and difficult to wield, the nunchaku lacks the range of the bo (quarterstaff) and the edged advantage of a sword. It is also prone to inflicting injury on its user. Nevertheless, the nunchaku's impressive motion in use and perceived lethality contributed to its increasing popularity, peaking in the 1980s, perhaps due to its (unfounded) association with ninja during the 1980s ninja craze.
