The staff is a bladed weapon and is often referred to as the "king of all weapons." The staff has a long history, serving as one of the primary tools of production in primitive society and one of the earliest weapons used in warfare. Its length ranges from approximately 1.3 to 2.6 meters, with some reaching up to 4 meters. The cross-section is generally circular, with a thickness that can be comfortably gripped with one hand. The staff is a close-combat weapon, and its attack range is greater than that of swords or spears. There is an old saying that "the staff sweeps a wide area." However, the staff primarily causes blunt force injuries and bruises, and its lethality is less than that of swords or spears.
