I've seen two totally different designs for this weapon, one was the one pictured, the other was more like a very long sword that was flexible. Kjrajesh (talk) 10:13, 12 January 2006 (UTC)Reply

Curious edit

How does this weapon fare against armored opponents? --208.179.66.227 (talk) 06:48, 25 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

It was used in the battlefields of the Malabar coast against opponents armed with bucklers. Full armour (apart from chain mail for high ranking officials) was not very common in that area 2a02:c7f:461d:bd00:c80f:a4df:dfc9:41dd|2a02:c7f:461d:bd00:c80f:a4df:dfc9:41dd (talk) 23:31, 7 November 2016 (UTC)Reply
