<< review queue entry 76158 - submitted by 'kbaiko' >> Definition was copied from https://baike.baidu.com/item/%E6%9C%B4%E5%88%80 This was used a lot in 水浒传, apparently because 朴刀 was the only weapon that citizens were allowed to use in the Song dynasty. But it's still commonly seen today in martial arts shows. >一些高手，手握一柄朴刀，能砍杀十几人，面对三十来个手无寸铁普通人也不怵。 >所以拔刀术始终在天朝这边没流行开来。又或者说，比起诸如朴刀、鸳鸯刀等等这些刀术，拔刀斩这种技术在这边有些水土不服。 >伴当说不上魁梧高大，但是个个干练精悍，一色的青布直身，腰系板带。腰悬朴刀，手持哨棒 >陈催奔走屋顶如履平地，几步追上手中朴刀挥出，瞬间斩去暗哨一条小腿。汉子惨叫一声，滚落下去。只在屋瓦上留下一条长长的血迹。 >库洛洛往下压刀，诡异朴刀斩入席巴脑袋，一寸寸往下深入，几乎要斩入席巴的颈部，他慢条斯理地道... --------------------------------------------- Editor: A "short hilt"?

New Age C-E definition ~ "a sword with a long narrow blade and a RELATIVELY LONG HILT wielded with both hands" (my emphasis) The "narrow" bit is also in various sources but is contradicted by Wikipedia, for example: 朴刀型态为一种长而宽的钢刀，... |
