    a katar

    its a punching dagger

    probably not that exotic, but its not common


    usually a single triangular blade

    but sometimes 3 blades(straight or angled)

    and sometimes with with 2 blades sticking out of the sides(as guards)

    urumi

    its a sword made of a flexable metal

    a sword whip, both sides are sharpened and you can wear it as a belt!

    the thought of using that weapon scares me

    I've seen that weapon on TV used by warriors of Kerala, India.

    They were practising on each as in the above the picture - fast! One of the guys got cut.

    A skilled person with the flexibile sword could hold off twenty attackers.

    The flexibility of the sword is the most difficult to counter as it would bend around (taichi, katanas, broadswords, etc) swords and still cut.

    I believe the chinese also have something similar.

    No, the ball is about the size of a melon and the handle is only long enough to grip so that the ball is touching your hand

    Weaponry of any shape / type falls into 3 basic categories.
    long weaponry
    short weaponry
    flexible weaponry

    learn how to manipulate each basic type and you will see anything no matter how obscure as just a variation on one of these themes.

    How deep you go into each category is another question.
