HERE IS ANOTHER STRANGE INDIA KATAR AND A FEW OF THE MANY STRANGE CHINESE SHORT WEAPONS. I HAVE NO INFORMATION ON THE KATAR AND ALL THE CHINESE WEAPONS ARE MODERN ONES FOR MARTIAL ARTS AS I DON'T HAVE ANY PICTURES OF GOOD OLD ONES.
1. 5 BLADED INDIAN KATAR, 2. HOOK TYPE WEAPONS, 3.VARIATION OF HOOK TYPE, 4. ANTLER KNIVES, 5. SUN AND MOON SPEAR BLADES.

THE KATAR IS INTERESTING IN THAT IT COULD BE USED EITHER LEFT OR RIGHT HANDED AND COULD ALSO BE TURNED TO GAURD THE FOREARM AND ALSO STRIKE TO BOTH SIDES AS WELL AS TO THE FRONT.
