What Martial Arts Exercise Tool Is This?

Question

it looks like a pole, about 1-1.5 feet, with a weighted disc on the end, about the size of a frizbee. Also, how much do the discs typically weight?

Answer 1

It sounds like it might be a Chiishi, which is an Okinawin conditioning and strength building tool. It is mainly used for the forearms and wrist. I wish that you had a picture of what you are talking about.

Weight's vary as you need more as you get stronger.

Here are some pics of what i am talking about:
