A soft weapon, the metal whip usually comprises five, seven, nine and up to thirteen sections. Jet Li’s mastery of the metal whip is on par with Kwan Tak Hing. In Dr Wai in The Scripture With No Words (1996), Li single-handedly defeats a score of enemies with a nine-section metal whip in all its prowess and flair.

This seven-section whip is a metal assembly of connected rings and bars.
