I'm curious if this blade was forged from Ranni's body, which is why her remains are hidden away. The only other corpse that makes sense would be if it were forged from Godwyn's remains, but I think that's manifested elsewhere. For close combat fighting they wear a circular wrist knife (abarait) and one or two finger knives (egolu) and finger hooks (ecorogat) which are designed to gouge out an enemy’s eyes. For the Turkana, it is the utilitarian quality of the weapons which counts, their usefulness in raiding and repelling raids. Their weapons are seldom decorated for aesthetic purposes.

This is the cleaning of the wound and removal of dead tissue and contaminants.If the ligament on the bottom of the joint (called the volar plate) is torn, the patient may have pain and looseness on the underside of the finger.

Estimates suggest that over 500 varieties of rice are adapted to the higher altitude (500 to 1600 m.a.s.l.), wet paddy, flooded farming system employed by the Ifugao ([ 26]: p. 71). The Kantu′ in West Kalimantan, Indonesia, do not randomly select any portion of the harvest for use as seed in the following year’s swiddens. Rather, they select their seed-rice during a special phase of the harvest ( ngami’benih), each panicle being selected individually by the harvester for its visible, desirable characteristics [ 34].

Most minor finger cuts heal within 2– 4 weeks. Deeper cuts or those requiring medical attention or surgery will take longer to heal. Finally, the blade bent easily under my normal flex testing. In fighting, I figure you’d rather have that than breakage. But if you used the Gambit as an EDC knife, the easy bending might give the impression of cheapness. Khor M, Lin LL.
