[QUOTE="ColinChapman, post: 6401110, member: 6779742"] Apart from the meteor hammer/flying weight/rope dart I posted before, I also wanted to tackle the tekagi-shuko (ninja climbing claws also used as weapons), whip chains (such as the seven-section whip), and fighting fans (specifically the tie shan and gunsen, both are which were folding and had sharpened iron ribs). I was going to do a separate entry for hook swords (such as the tiger hook) but now I've found out that the early ones were sharp, the stats ended up being those of the scimitar, so I'm folding them in there. I've also added a Flail entry to the equivalency list in the form of the Chijiriki.

Fighting Fan 5 gp 1d4 slashing 2 lb. Finesse, light An elegant weapon, the fighting fan is a decorative folding fan with sharp-tipped iron ribs.
