Urumi

• It’s a sword. It’s a whip. It’s very easy to hurt yourself when wielding this weapon.
• Before dabbling into the art of the urumi, one is supposed to have knowledge with a sword. It’s meant to be the last weapon learned in a certain type of martial arts.
• This originated in South India/Sri Lanka in the Sangam Period, or the 3rd – 5th century BCE.
• The Urumi is best used against multiple enemies, if swarmed in battle.
