About: Shobo

An Entity of Type: weapon, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

A shobo is a weapon, similar to the Emeici of China, which was used by the ninja of Japan for striking pressure points on an opponent. It was a piece of wood that was gripped by the wielder and was hung by a ring worn on the middle finger. Some versions were rings with a wooden peg attached on top. The ends were exposed and were usually sharp, which made them effective for paralyzing and even killing enemies quickly and without leaving a trace. They were easily hidden in the fists and were very lightweight and portable. They were usually worn in pairs. Many ninjas constructed their own shobo, although some were given from master to student.

dbo:abstract
  • Un shobo es un arma blanca similar al emeici de China que era utilizado por los ninjas de Japón para golpear sobre los puntos de presión de un oponente. Era un pedazo de madera que era sostenido por el portador y colgado de un anillo en el dedo del medio. Algunas versiones eran anillos con una clavija de madera adjunta en la parte superior. Los extremos se expusieron y fueron por lo general fuertes, que los hizo efectivos para paralizar e incluso matar a los enemigos de forma rápida y sin dejar rastro. Se ocultaban fácilmente en los puños de los ninjas y eran muy ligeros y portátiles. Generalmente eran usados en pares. Muchos ninjas construyeron sus propios shobos, aunque algunos fueron dados del sensei al estudiante. Debido a la naturaleza secreta de los ninjas, no hay manera de saber exactamente cuándo y dónde el shobo fue inventado (es decir, sin más preciso que el Japón feudal) y exactamente lo popular que era entre los ninjas. Se cree que esta era un arma improvisada, con orígenes comunes citados como pedazos de herraduras para los caballos y el ganado, anillos de arnés para riendas y bisagras de metal para puertas y portones.

Due to the secretive nature of the ninja, there is no way of knowing exactly when and where the shobo was invented (meaning no more precise than feudal Japan) and exactly how popular it was among the ninja. It is believed this was an improvised weapon, with common origins cited as bridle bits for horses and livestock, harness rings for reins, and metal hinges for gates and doors. How the weapon was formalized is still up for debate. (en)
