West Poison Au Yeung Fung's snake staff: an underappreciated weapon?

[Ken Cheng]

West Poison Au Yeung Fung's snake staff is one of the most underappreciated weapons in wuxia. It doesn't get much discussion or scrutiny, but it's got quite a gimmick: it houses/shoots out poisonous snakes! Ingeniously deadly! I wish somebody would draw a cutaway diagram of this weapon to reveal how it actually works.
