The knuckle-blade is essentially, a knuckle-duster type brawling weapon with a thin, two to three inch deep blade that runs across the knuckles. It is employed most often in a slashing attack, but will also do crush critical damage. Versions mounting a thicker blade can also be used with a punching motion. Even though it is a bit more effective than either the knuckle-duster or the closed fist, it has limited appeal for brawling practitioners.
