The traditional martial arts that cover [[armed combat]] often encompass a wide spectrum of melee weapons, including [[bladed weapon]]s and [[polearms]]. Such traditions include [[eskrima]], [[silat]], [[kalaripayat]], [[Okinawan kobudo|kobudo]], and [[historical European martial arts]], especially those of the [[Italian Renaissance]]. Many [[Chinese martial arts]] also feature weapons as part of their curriculum.{{Citation needed|date=February 2024}}

Sometimes, training with one specific weapon may be considered a style in its own right, especially in the case of [[Japanese martial arts]], with disciplines such as [[kenjutsu]] and [[kendo]] (sword), [[bojutsu]] (staff), and [[kyūdō]] (archery). Similarly, modern martial arts and sports include [[modern fencing]], stick-fighting systems like [[canne de combat]], [[modern competitive archery]] and [[practical shooting]].{{Citation needed|date=February 2024}}
