Knife quotes.

Each century of man's useful habitation of earth has produced an edged weapon unique to that century. A weapon which is emblematic to its age; upon which all understanding of personal combat with edged weapons is focalized, subjects to the needs and limitations of the society and civilization of the time.
-William L. Cassidy

You can do anything with bayonets except sit on them.
-Napoleon Bonaparte.

Package arrived at cuz Izzat`s place on Feb 3rd `11. Thanks cuz!
I was actually aiming for the Basara II, which is a smaller version of the original Basara, but JKD ran out of stock. Coincidently, Kiku was coming to the states and brought this particular piece along with him.
-Brought by the `sensei` himself.- JAPAN > US > MALAYSIA insyaallah



The above knives was a special project for Japanese SWAT team to turn out the toughest and powerful knife, yet compact size and weight to carry.
Kiku was chosen and involved with this project from the beginning for the design work, prototypes and field testing.
After months of working, he finally came up with the perfect knives to meet with their extreme demands.
His grinding technique and special Hamaguri-ba made it possible. Reinforced thick Hamaguri grind tip is strong enough to penetrate wall and car body, and pry open the door and window.

*Hamaguri-Ba (Japanese Convex edge famous for Katana) grinding

Below are the picture of a newer version of the Basara.

 Note that the riveted holes ( on the original ) were replaced by screws thus 
covering the holes for a paracord insert / knot.

PASKAU
Sejarah Pasukan Khas Udara (PASKAU) bermula pada tahun 1970-an selepas satu serangan oleh anasir pengganas komunis dari Parti Komunis Malaya ke atas pangkalan TUDM Kuala Lumpur menyebabkan kemusnahan sebuah pesawat  DHC-4 Caribou. Serangan itu dilakukan menggunakan sepucuk mortar yang dipasangkan di atas sebuah lori kecil.
Pasukan yang awalnya ditubuhkan dikenali dengan nama pasukan HANDAU (Pertahanan Darat dan Udara) dan ditugaskan menjaga keselamatan pangkalan-pangkalan TUDM. Dalam tahun 1996, pasukan ini disusun semula dan diberikan nama baru, iaitu Pasukan Khas Udara. Pasukan ini seperti komando tentera darat Grup Gerak Khas ataupun komando tentera laut. PASKAL, yang membezakannya ialah pengkhususan dari segi peranan utama dan tugasan pasukan-pasukan tersebut berbeza-beza.
Pasukan Khas Udara (PASKAU) terdiri daripada anggota-anggota TUDM lulus Asas Komando TUDM dan dipilih mengikuti kursus peperangan khas untuk membolehkan mereka menjalankan peranan seperti mencari dan menyelamat tempur CSAR serta penandaan sasaran menggunakan peralatan penanda (designator) menggunakan infra red ataupun laser (TLID). PASKAU boleh menggunakan teknik-teknik dan taktik khusus dalam operasi mencari dan menyelamat tempur (CSAR) menggunakan pasukan-pasukan khusus dipanggil (Combat Air Rescue Team). PASKAU juga satu-satunya pasukan khas yang mempunyai keupayaan Carilamat Maritim di Asia Tenggara.
