Which hand should I bring?

When wearing a finger wrench, it is recommended to wear it on the left hand, because people's left hand does not move often. Wearing a finger wrench can set off people's fingers and play a very good decorative role, while protecting the finger wrench from external damage.

Secondly, wearing a finger wrench in your left hand can alert yourself. When people are angry, most of them will clap their palms on the table, which will knock the fingers with finger wrenches and play a warning role.

Banzhi can also be worn on the right hand, but it is not recommended, because people's right hand often touches various objects, which is easy to damage Banzhi and fingers and will bring great inconvenience to themselves.

Many people think that the jade finger wrench should be worn on the left thumb, which can protect the thumb of the hand holding the bow and arrow; However, some people think that the jade finger should be worn on the thumb of the right hand to protect the thumb of the hand pulling the string.

In terms of use, fingering can be divided into two types: literal fingering and martial fingering. The so-called fingering is mainly used for playing, and the fingering refers to archery before opening the bow. In addition, Wu Banzhi must be worn on the archer's thumb, while Wen Banzhi is not so particular, that is, he can be free. Of course, the general jade fingering mostly belongs to literary play, which should be played freely with both hands.

In ancient times, it was to avoid thumb injury. Now paperboard is more used for decoration. It doesn't really matter whether you wear your left hand or your right hand. You can wear it according to your own habits and hobbies.

However, it should be noted that when wearing, the concave surface is outward and the convex surface is inward, so that there should be a gap at the root of the thumb, and at the same time, it is necessary to avoid bumping and pay attention to maintenance. Only in this way can we achieve the effect of "people raise jade and jade raises people".
