Yanagi is arguably the strongest of the escape convicts in Baki 2018, one of his many weapons in the series is the Bagh Nakh. The Bagh Nakh, also known as, Tiger Claw, is a historic Indian Weapon that was used for ambush attacks. It is also said the tips were sometimes poisoned to ensure the opening attack was the deadliest. What do you think of the design of the Bagh Nakh?

[mrroboshadow]

Those cons are probably why ninja used their similar tool mostly for climbing/infiltration rather than combat

[presentlee]

Why using that when you have a poisonous vacuum palm?

[slicessenpai]

One thing about Baki that I really like is that it not only appeals to martial arts lovers, but also weapon nerds, even the most unconventional.

Currently reading around this arc in the manga, and I've seen fishing lines + rubber bands and glueing glass shards to your fists. Makes for some very interesting fights.

Another Pro: the two fingers holding rings on the Bagh Nakh can actually be decorated with gold and jewels to give a appearance of rings making it more consealed.

From what I understand being an Indian and a history enthusiast. The bagh nakh wasn’t this super covert weapon that people think of it as. We do have examples in history of how people use it but they mostly make glancing attacks, akin to a knuckle duster. Hitting with full force would either get it stuck or worse, break your fingers.

Also, daggers and bucklers were common fashion accessories ever since the medieval period in India. It probably makes sense that they would be used in conjunction to them.

Lastly, these things were very much a nobility thing. Hell, we tried a whole bunch of things that would look insane today which include strapping rockets to an elephant and mounting a huge musket on camels. Idk if they were practical but we sure did it.

I can definitely see weapon retention being an issue, but I guess it would work for an ambush if the objective is to blind your opponent.

[augustgremaud]

Named my last D&D character Baghnakh after this weapon - he was a warforged assassin. Cool stuff!

[SkippyZii]

Ah yes the melee drop of the Crimson Mimic

[BigDaddyDingers]

And that’s why the push version was made

[iqbalmabbit]

I don't usually comment, but this video really educating me in a minute and the explanation is really clear and make sense, so I have to left a comment to appreciate the creator.

[ahedjehad]

so, about the con number 3: since the Bagh Nakh was mostly used in ambushes, the Bagh Nakh was often dipped in poison.

bagh nakh from baki❌ bagh nakh from Maharashtra ✅

[sidharthm]

It was used by an Indian Hindu Emperor named Shivaji to kill General Afzal Khan of the then Mughal Emperor. Afzal was much bigger and stronger than Shivaji Raje. He was deceiving Raje and asking for treaty. He wanted to hug Raje. Shivaji was one of the smartest and brilliant emperors of India who ever lived. He practically invented guerrilla warfare, and many resistance leaders tried to recreate his tactics. Hence, Raje knew about this through his spies. He used this tear Afzal's back wide open during the hug.

The name literally translates to tiger nail

[joshikrishna]

Every indian knows the power and pride of this ❤❤❤❤

[Qyu]

Bagh means tiger and nakh means nails.
At least in many regional Indian languages.
I don't know about URDU or Hindi both are the same with slight differences.

[YusufIslam]

If you shave this man bold, he looks like Alex Pereira.

[AKGAMING-lmsi]

Its not just any indian traditional weapon, its a legendary weapon
Jai chatrapati shivaji 🗿♥️🚩

[narutolast]

Every single one of them became so OP after they were defeated😂
