👉 The latter weapon, often referred to as the "backhand" or "reverse backhand" depending on the context, is a defensive or offensive tool used in various martial arts disciplines. It involves striking the opponent's back, typically with the heel of the foot or the side of the hand, aiming to disrupt balance, cause pain, or inflict injury. This technique can be employed to counter an incoming attack, protect oneself from being attacked, or even as a finishing move in combat. Mastery of this weapon requires precise timing, footwork, and an understanding of leverage to maximize its effectiveness while minimizing the risk of self-injury.
