At the risk of sounding like the ignorant newbie (heh whoops- I am)-

What exactly is the kusarigama? I gathered from the pictures it's like a ball and chain tied to a scythe, and my mind for some reason remembers the word, but I'm not sure from what.

Also, how do you practice with it? That thing would be a monster if you messed up with it...
