Well Katana, I am quite relieved that Stone agrees with us, that Husar’s katar it from south India, and when I saw the last picture you posted, I did remember it. I think it is time I withdraw what I said about a ceremonial katar, but I am still of the opinion that a stab from a katar with a ‘normal’ grip will be more powerful, than it would be from one with a grip parallel to the blade.
