Kama

The Kama is a formidable weapon, traditionally used in pairs, though in agricultural use it would be used one-handed, whilst the other hand grasped the stalks for cutting.

When a ball and chain are attached to the end of the Kama, it becomes a Kusarigama, a formidable (if hard to master) weapon because its range makes it extremely difficult for opponents to approach the wielder.
