A palm down hook is a karambit, palm up, a standard grip blade, a vertical fist just a fist or because of the target. The various fists may not need to be considered "the way", "better", etc. They vary because of the angle in incidence to what we are hitting, or what we have in them.

Anyway, I'm just trying to find out more about Master Edwin ... who ::he is, where he is now, does he still teach, etc .... just curious. Also, You may have a reference to Mataas-na guro Edwin Ballarta, currently out of Texas. Contact him through guro Leslie Buck leslie@prismnet.com - I don't know specifically if his background includes kuntao. - -- 'gards, /\ Pekiti-Tirsia kali / \ silat Jati Wisesa Loki Jorgenson < MANOyBASTON Martial Arts > / __ \ Dog Brothers MA loki@pekiti-tirsia.org (604) 254-0240 / _L \ Majapahit Empire www.pekiti-tirsia.org/ManoBaston/ /________\ (Inosanto-IMAIA) ------------------------------ From: "Carlton H. Fung,D.D.S." Date: Sat, 3 Jun 2000 18:37:59 -0700 Subject: eskrima: Its about hips > I can't speak for anyone else, but I have gone to using only palm strikes and fingertips to the face/head. Anyone who continues to strike hard surfaces repeatedly under the guise of training for fighting is kidding themselves. Steve is totally right. Sounds like strange parallels to full contact doesn't it? Also, It is not about the knuckles but the hips. Regards, Carlton H. Fung,D.D.S.
