Re: Monk Weapons
Meteor Hammer is my favorite monk weapon, especially for early levels. Has reach but also threatens next to you. Plus, I got my DM to house rule that I can treat a whip dagger as a monk weapon, using the meteor hammer as a precedent. I'm trying to get him to let me flank from 15ft now, but so far, it's a no go.

Amulet of Mighty Fists
Aura faint evocation; CL 5th
Slot neck; Price 4,000 gp (+1), 16,000 gp (+2), 36,000 gp (+3), 64,000 gp (+4), 100,000 gp (+5)*; Weight —
DESCRIPTION
This amulet grants an enhancement bonus of +1 to +5 on attack and damage rolls with unarmed attacks and natural weapons.
Alternatively, this amulet can grant melee weapon special abilities, so long as they can be applied to unarmed attacks. See Table: Melee Weapon Special Abilities for a list of abilities. Special abilities count as additional bonuses for determining the market value of the item, but do not modify attack or damage bonuses. An amulet of mighty fists cannot have a modified bonus (enhancement bonus plus special ability bonus equivalents) higher than +5. An amulet of mighty fists does not need to have a +1 enhancement bonus to grant a melee weapon special ability.

Re: Monk Weapons
Speaking of kensai, I'm sort of imagining one taking the throwing/returning enhancements for his unarmed strike, allowing his unarmed attacks to strike with such speed/force that they create an air pressure to strike foes from a distance. A bit of a flavor readjustment, and I can see one ruling that the monk's body becomes "numb" until the beginning of his next turn, preventing him from making attacks of opportunity (to match a returning weapon having not yet returned to its owner's hand).
Is anyone else picturing Johnny Tremain: Revolutionary Monk?
Now you've got me wanting to stat out Kenshiro from Fist of the North Star, whom I recall hearing the 3rd Edition monk was mostly based upon.
My first thought was Mammoth Mogul from Archie's Sonic the Hedgehog series, though it wouldn't surprise me if he was inspired by a previous character; I recall DC had some-sort of prehistoric immortal. Vandal Savage, I think? Astaroth from SoulCalibur has a similar chest-jewel, though he's an intelligent construct. Curmudgeon's mention of a navel-housed crystal (and that laughably bad Barbarians movie) has me wanting to apply a gemstone of fortification from the Draconomicon to a female character in much the same way.3e │ 5e : Quintessa's Dweomerdrain (Drain power from a magic item to fuel your spells)

Re: Monk Weapons
I tend to use the defending property on a rod. Since many count as a mace/club and then you can use the utility aspects of the rods. at one point I got a dancing rope dart and braided it in to my hair. I never had to worry about when it dropped.
