I found this on wikipedia:
Possession of nunchaku is illegal in a number of countries, including Canada, Germany, Norway and the United Kingdom (anti-nunchaku laws in the U.K. were loosened somewhat in 1991). Legality in the United States of America varies at state level, e.g. personal possession of nunchaku is illegal in New York, California and Massachusetts, but in other states possession is not criminalized. Legality in Australia is also determined by individual state laws. In New South Wales, the weapon is on the restricted weapons list, and thus can only be owned with a permit.

Eh? I've seen stores selling nunchucks around here. In fact, my friend, who takes karate classes, ordered one out of a catalog recently.

Guess they're not illegal here in TX.
