Top: A tactical tomahawk, modeled after a Native American weapon, now said to be used by Special Operations. Thanks to author Jack Carr for reminding me that if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.

Bottom: A kukri, traditional weapon of the Gurkhas, who serve with the British Army and still carry that weapon. Graffiti in Afghanistan: Gurkhas: Why a big man with a frown is less scary than a small man with a smile – and a big knife.
