Kabutowari

Kabutowari, also knwon as Hachiwari, was a Rokugani knife-shaped weapon, Shadowlands: The Essential Guide to the Dominion of Fu Leng, p. 74 similar to the tekkan, a blunt, castiron sword the Crab used in their defense of the Wall. Developed from the humble jitte, the “skull breaker” was the size and shape of a wakizashi. It had a curved, blunt blade with a rectangular cross section, a small cast crossguard, and like the jitte, a sizeable hook cast into the back of the blade near the crossguard. Often carried as a backup weapon by Crab samurai and ashigaru, it was used more to pry apart armor or chitin plates than to slash or stab foes.
