It is a soft exercise that strengthens inside, it belongs to the soft force of YIN, but also develops the hard force of YANG at the same time. This specialized exercise for strengthening finger tips has great similarity to and some difference with such methods as “Force of Eagle Claws” (YING ZHAO LI) and "Making Holes in Stones" (DIAN SHI GONG). All those Shaolin exercises form so called “Deadly Arm” (SHA SHOU). Differences between them are given below. For instance, the exercise “Force of Eagle Claws” trains the force of fingers for locks and the exercise “Making Holes in Stones” trains the ability to deliver thrusts with finger tips. “Finger Lock” also trains finger tips for seizing movements but differs from two previous skills in training methods and methods of use...

...Mastership reaches perfection at that stage. Four to five years of persistent training may pass from the start of familiarization with the exercise to its completion. If after successful mastering this Shaolin GONG FU, you seize some part of the enemy’s body with three fingers, you will surely crush his muscles or splinter his bones, inflicting a very severe wound on him.
