Aruval
The arival ((タミル語:அரிவாள்/அருவாள்)) is a type of billhook from India, particularly common in the southern state of Tamil Nadu. It is used both as a tool and a weapon. Tamils revere the weapon as a symbol of Karupannar. In popular culture it is sometimes associated with south Indian gangsters. In many Tamil movies, it is used as a weapon of choice. ==Introduction== An arival usually measures 3-6 feet in length.The blade of this weapon originates at the grip and extends to the main part of the blade. You can describe it as a sickle with an extension. You can also think of it as a Sword with a reverse curve. The shorter versions were handy for breaking apart coconuts, and the longer versions were more like Battle Weapons. The shorter version is usually seen in small villages. Blades are mostly straight with a curve towards the end, allowing it to function as a grabbing tool. The straight portion of the blade is also used for cutting, like a standard knife.
