hahaha THAT my friend is a special bullwhip designed for Latigo Y Daga martial arts <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

It's nasty when the bad guy is at arm's length (coiled cord moving at supersonic speeds) but it's even nastier when the bad guy tries to get up close <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

The spike is actually spring-loaded and hides in the handle.

The 'Hawk is an SOG which I highly recommend: http://sogknives.com/store/F01T.html

the blade you might not recognize is a Kyocera ceramic santoku knife, a bit disappointing if you must know. The other blade, I'm sure you recognize <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
