now I,ve spent decades learning to use several very different blade or edge weapon's, and its a skill set that takes a great deal of practice, and each person tends to find a type of edge weapon they prefer. now obviously Its not something youll get to use under the real intended applications, unless things go terribly wrong with modern society , but I find it rather interesting I respect the karambit design http://www.budk.com/Gil-Hibben-High-Polish-Karambit-With-Sheath-37093 http://www.opticsplanet.com/united-cutlery-united-honshu-kerambit-satin-knife.html
but prefer the KUKRI I can tell you from experience that a skilled and practiced guy with two kukris, would be damn dangerous, in any edged weapon confrontation as he has exceptional cutting slashing , chopping and ability to block, parry, and disarm almost any opponents blade, and decent reach and the ability to stay out of the effective reach of many opponents, but as with all skill sets, its that skill and constant practice and familiarity with the tools, not the tools themselves http://www.thekhukurihouse.com/catalog/product.php?id=323430fc812
