Of course there would be the reality of lower classes fighting, with whatever came to hand and kama is a tool used in Okinawa re harvesting etc etc. I seriously doubt the reality of the mainstream using say Nunchaku, Tonfa, Kama in fights, outside of personal differences etc etc, Bo and Sai have a fairly solid role in Law Enforcement that makes reasonable sense and is varifiable. The majority of the Kobudo kata IMO have little/nothing to do with Battlefield fighting, considering the weaponry used and the manner in which it is used, where and by whom it was used. Most avaliable Kobudo kata from Okinawa IMO was developed/formed by Okinawans in the late 19th or early 20th cent.
