Just a few important recaps:
Usually Ip Ma fights with bare hands that's for sure, but the Reddit respect thread already suggests that Ip Man can actually wield, and has wielded, long staffs, short staffs and "butcher knives". His fight with Cheung Tin Chi actually involves a fight with a long bo staff, a fight with twin butcher knives, and a fight bare handed.
Ip Man is also shown to be able to use weapons and even pick weapons should he not be carrying one.
Chen Zhe is shown to be very adept at using wood sticks and nunchucks.
This Chen Zhe was also shown fighting with whips (made out of his own belt).
It is important to state in each fight (and basically applicable to every fight with Tier 9 Chinese kung fu fighters because many can fight with bare hands as well as with weapons - unless they are shown to only fight with bare hands) what equipment they carry. Unless they are stated to be bare-handed, they should be holding at least one weapon.
