Glad I could help.

So far as the Khukuris go, I've been thinking about it, and I'm trying to think up some good, no to expensive cutting tests to see how well the khuks work on draw cuts. Tomatoes come to mind. If I can slice a tomato cleanly, I'll start thinking that some of those slices would work.

As KuKulz and Bally pointed out, there are some issues with training with weapons with unarmored opponents. I'm not deriding miming the blows for safety's sake. I'm just saying that it would be good to include breaking or cutting practice, so that the people actually doing the training know how to apply power as well as be accurate.

Best,

F
