I mean the Cane is THE symbol of Goju-Shorei Weapons after all…
The knife is obvious and it has always been a part of the system.
As for the magazine, you’ve probably at least heard about rolling up one end and using it in a similar fashion to a folded up fan, or “tessen”…
The tactical flashlight…

Flashlights in the Goju-Shorei Weapons System
One of the newest additions to the Goju-Shorei Weapons System is the tactical flashlight.
Come on now, you have to admit this is a bright idea…
