I see you've got yourself a gravatar... :) @David/Jacob Neko-te are actually fairly simple, the simplest designs consist of a rectangle of steel, with a point cut into the middle of one side, that is then formed onto a semi-circle. It is traditionally strapped around the tips of the fingers with a leather strap. Should be fairly simple to replicate. Hey Mozza! I see you’ve got yourself a gravatar… :)

So far as combining them, I think that might make for a very cool weapon, but given that the Tekagi really wasn't designed with concealability as a primary goal, I don't think the resulting weapon could be considered particularly discrete... :) No, i agree, each weapon has it’s strengths and weaknesses… So far as combining them, I think that might make for a very cool weapon, but given that the Tekagi really wasn’t designed with concealability as a primary goal, I don’t think the resulting weapon could be considered particularly discrete… :)

but seriously i do think both the formentioned weapons have their different situations in which they would perform best but i do think if we could modify the desgn to be wielded both palm side and on the knuckles it would be the best descreet claw weapon in history

I guess I keep getting hung up on the mechanical aspects of it, I think the tekagi would be easier to design for strength and be easier to wield at full strength, so i tend to lean towards that design than the Bagh Nakh...
