I tried watching the new show, it was pretty bad. As far as the nunchucks with the blades go, eh. Not a fan of that either. In the right hands, anything can be a useful weapon, especially nunchucks. Just look at the way Bruce Lee used them.
I know that, i read this entire thread, It’s just not a style I like, all the wrinkles just clash with the muh smother/younger style of the rest of the body. Again personal preference.
