e34me,

In certain parts of India you might find a weapon called a bagh nakh. Do a web search on that term.

P.S. When you get out of prison, post on Fighting Arts forum and tell us about your self-defense experiences.

Harlan,

I was going to reply to your PM directly but I was not able to use the PM function properly so I will just answer it here: Someone called e34me recently started a thread about claw type weapons. Some of the people who posted on the thread indicated the kid was lost in fantasy with his "claw weapon" concept. In fact, claw weapons were produced in India. It is not pure computer game fantasy. I was merely providing an actual answer to e34me's original question.

Thank you. It was such an odd post...I missed the thread.
