If you note, the projection at the base of the handle, it keeps the hand in place when hooking a kick when you pull back and can be used as an in-close impact weapon if needed. Look at the beautiful pamor! The total inside edge is sharp.

They are handmade and now IN FULL OLD HAND LAYERED PAMOR-DAMASCUS STEEL. NEW! SUPER HIGH QUALITY PAMOR STEEL BELADAUДЇor the first time this historical sword is available for sale. Worse you can then draw them into you, as they come forward to escape the edge and were hit with the cabang! As they punched or kicked the beladau comes in behind that and as they retract the blow, they are trapped and cut. Unlike most swords the sharp edge is only on the inside curved portion! Why? This sword was designed to catch the arms and legs of the enemy. The use of the beladau is sneaky and very hard to stop. You can see the picture autographed to me that shows Guru Malter holding them together. So he told me, the beladau and the cabang were often used together. I have not seen any to this day showing them. I am not sure how many other students of Master Wetzel were taught the use of them. So he shared the use of them, how he was shown to use them by Master Wetzel with me. Guru Malter knew I was also interested in weapons and especially at the time, these. Later we had a few crude swords made in Mexico from the plans for a few of us. A few of the top students chipped in and we gave them to him for a Christmas gift. Guru Malter wanted a real set for himself and at that time I had a blacksmith make the first two models for him from those drawings. I know this because he gave me copies of the drawings of these two weapons that came from Master Wetzel that he brought with him from Java. So it seems Master Wetzel shared the cabang and beladau with Guru Malter. Guru Malter always told us he was only interested in the pure combat applications of the art and not any tournament styles that some wanted to pursue at that time. I later found the most popular name in Java for it, is the beladau. I found the bladed cabang being used with the Mas Jud line and there in Java I was at last to see a sword with a sharp inside curve as well. Later I found the stick can be called a kanching. The sword was not named, nor was the short stick. The cabang was named and it has a few, siku-siku being another used. The names of these weapons were not always told to us. The bladed cabang, the short stick (kanching stick) and one sword, the beladau.

You will also learn the basics on how to use the beladau and cabang at the same time.Дuring the early years of my training with Guru John Malter only three weapons were mentioned specifically as part of the lineage. In this DVD you will learn the historical background, basic strikes and cuts, a short basic form shown from various directions and speeds.
