good battle quality flyssa

I think the big knife type of Flyssa is held much in the same way as a great many of Indonesian knives with a small handle for Europeans, that is often held with a thumb and forefinger on the forte. The Flyssa then is a very keen blade, the thin ones very much a rib tickler

This is only a small one but I think you could go twice the length, which would make this 75cm overall. Very similar to the one starting the thread. Held in this fashion would be quite comfortable as they are a light fast weapon. Deadly, like all those thin daggers from around the Mediterranean.

I could also see this blade working well with a kanjar (icepick) type grip.
