People from different martial arts attended the seminar and more than half of them are instructors and have thier own martial arts academies. Attendance came from Czech Republic, Slovenia, Spain, other than from different parts of Italy. The seminar covered entries, release counters and take-downs in regards to the Kerambit. What is a KERAMBIT? The Kerambit (aka, karambit, korambit) is a small hooked knife with a ring on its handle. Its a traditional close quarter, stealth weapon found most commonly in old silat styles and a few other southeast asian martial arts like several Filipino Kali schools. No matter how a person tries to convince you that the kerambit is an agricultural or DIY tool you cant help but feel and see that its design and function is more for killing then anything else. Based on the design of a tigers claw, a competent practitioner don’t just cut any part of the body but aims for the arteries and soft tissues of the body. The kerambit cuts and slices, but its design functions more for tearing and piercing, to inflict maximum damage. This seminar aims to raise curiosity and awareness among people of different nationalities about the martial heritage and culture of Brunei Darussalam and silat in general. The understanding that what makes a martial art is …

@tdugong
yes, I now understand this. Earlier I was just being silly without intending to be disrespectful. My apologies
@flancka actually, Malays do dress like that in olden times. It acts like a sash for holding up the trousers, used as a towel during travels and used as a weapon in case of emergency.
@flancka That’s because most Tai Chi instruction is bullshit. However when taught properly, the style can be very devastating. With the right training, a student can also become quite effective within a shorter amount of time (1-2 years).

how to disarm kerambit?
pukulan buah yg hebat…..
one of the oldest perguruan silat here in my place-java,use the karambit for their symbol.now i can see how dangerous is this weapon….
this has to be one of the most effective fighting styles i’ve ever seen.
in history soldiers in Malaysia and Indonesia were armed with a kris at their waist and a spear in their hands, while the kerambit was used as a last resort when the fighter’s other weapons were lost in battle its also was popular among women who would tie the weapon into their hair to be used in self-defenseToday it is one of the main weapons of silat and its commonly used in Filipino martial arts as well.

@Spykachu78 kerambit (video description)
Interesting, Im not familiar with this martial art. Just wondering what weapon is that he is using?
fck silat is insane
Silat is cool, I like it. It has very same principles as Wing Chun. Both are very usefull.
Too many. I like classic martial arts, but sometimes we forget all this was meant for war. Even the very classic styles we practice had a practical meaning in everything, they were born because some warrior thought there was a more practical way to do things, but, as time goes by, some people begins to do things just because the elders did, they don’t understand what are they doing. Many martial arts have suffered this situation, specially modern interpretations of ancient war techniques.
the hakana actually looks pretty cool. Growing up watching samurai flicks i got use to seeing iit. Even a sarong by itself is cool. But having pants underneath that short fabric makes it seem either like an after-thought as in -oh, maybe I better introduce some cultual dress to this style. I was attempting to be light hearted since there is just so much ritual and dogma out there that interferes with real shit.
By the way, I was thinking about what jokes could you make about my hakama!
I meant Chen Wanting, the very creator of the first style, Chen, in the XVI century, that doesn’t apply to modern military. And of course is limited. I agree with you about that folkloric things, don’t buy it too. I wouldn’t use it, it’s not fit to my natural mechanics. And trying to learn the real use of Chi is too dificult to apply. It is sane to be skeptical, there are many guys trying to sell something
I don’t buy into all that folklore magical thinking self promoting secret manual stuff about tai chi. It is limited & will not work . I have known some 40 year practitoners of the art and one was an ex koumontang general from taiwan who practised as a sparring partner with chen manching.Ever see the international fah jing/ push hands competitions? exhibitions of strength. Any body saying tai chi works has previously lots of fighting experience in another practical art layered under the tai-chi
Hi!. The problem with Tai Chi is that the art is very difficult, so only an advance student is able to use it fully. And the most popular styles are focused in medicine, so there remain little skilled instructors in combat aplications. I don’t think is bullshit, but there are simpler forms to learn faster to the average human being. The creator of the first style was general Chen, at his time the military took an exam to promote ranks; so, to be a general you had to be a Great Master!.
@solnegrolunaroja
no disrespect meant, happy you could see that. This stuff irocks
Just for the readers of this comments, please don’t take ofense, this master is very good but a little humor is not harmful. I practiced Iaido some time, so you can take revenge doing jokes about my hakama
!!
Thanks!
