Ancient cold weapons full of murderous look

1, kata/fist blade, an Indian weapon, has also become a symbol of status, with exquisite workmanship and changeable shapes. Qatar even has a tradition of hunting tigers, because if you can kill tigers with this short-range weapon, it is undoubtedly a symbol of true warriors.

2. After the popularity of firearms, there are also boxing blades that can fire one bullet at a time.

3. Indian round blade/war wheel/ring blade, a legendary weapon of Vishnu, was often used by Sikh soldiers later. Sikh fighters usually carry round blades on their arms, necks or headscarves. As a throwing weapon, the advantage of round blade is that it can be easily used on horseback or elephant back.

4. Another dangerous Indian weapon, the whip blade/curling blade, looks disorganized. These sharp steel bars are usually rolled up and thrown into swords, which are the ultimate weapons in traditional martial arts in Kerala, southern India. Up to now, there are still performances of both sides fighting with whip blades and small shields to show their superb skills.

5. Egyptian hook/dagger, although evolved from an axe, is mainly used for chopping like a sword. The curved shape is used to remove the opponent's shield, and only the outside has a blade.

6. Zhuge crossbow, made by Zhuge Liang of Shu during the Three Kingdoms period in China, also known as Rong Yuan crossbow, can shoot ten arrows at a time, with strong firepower, and is mainly used to defend cities and camps. Later generations improved it and made it into a fifty-arrow crossbow, which is more powerful. However, due to the complexity of the production, the arrows used were all specially made, so the output was low and it was later lost.
