My wife's nephew is a Black Belt in Karate. It's probably more specific than that, but that's as much as I know about the subject. We made him a custom set of nunchucks today. He specified the length and the diameter. He also sanded them to the smoothness he wanted, which turned out to be to 220. Finish is paste wax. We used Ambrosia Maple for the handles. I threw away the roll pins that came with the kit and cut down some brass nails to fix the hardware to the wood. He specifically didn't want anything like rings cut into the handles.
