A Monk who is using a Monk weapon may use that weapon to deal damage with all attacks made in a Flurry of Blows or Echoing Strike.  When a Monk is wielding a weapon with one or both hands, that hand is not available to hold another item.  A Monk who is wielding a single Monk Weapon may make all the attacks possible in a Flurry of Blows with that single weapon no matter if it is a light weapon, a 1-handed weapon, or a 2-handed weapon.  If a Monk chooses to use two Monk weapons they take no penalties for doing so beyond the normal penalties for Flurry of Blows or Echoing Strike.

When attacking using Flurry of Blows or Echoing Strike, while wielding a Monk Weapon, the normal Unarmed damage from the Monk Table above is replaced by the weapon damage of the weapon being wielded.  This includes magic enhancement bonuses, increases in base weapon damage due to high level, and the effects of any magic weapon properties.


A Monk who is fighting with a nunchaku, a 1-hand Monk weapon, or a 2-hand Monk weapon that they are wielding with both hands may apply 1.5 times either their Str or Dex mod as damage, but do NOT increase their Wis mod to damage due to how many hands they are using on their weapon.  A Monk may release and/or regrip their weapon between each attack when using Flurry of Blows or Echoing Strike.  Doing so changes the damage they do with each strike and is generally a headache to keep track of, so this practice is not encouraged, no matter how cool it looks.
