Nunchucks (or nunchaku) are basic ninja weapons used in Ninjago. The nunchucks are two handles that are connected to a flexible chain connected to the top of the handles to make it a weapon. The length of said chain depends on the pair. Nunchucks are one of the greatest ninja weapons that can be used in melee combat.
Jay initially specialized in the use of nunchucks, including the Nunchucks of Lightning, before switching to a kusarigama.
Arin and Sora used a set of nunchucks to play fetch with Riyu at times.

- Jay used his nunchucks in the Pilot episodes but stopped using them after he got the Nunchucks of Lightning. In Season 2, Jay returned to use his normal nunchucks after Garmadon stole his golden ones. Jay started to use a katana in Seasons 5 and 6, but then changed back to his nunchucks from Day of the Departed until Season 10. Jay's nunchucks were later replaced with his Golden Kusarigama in Season 11.
