Well, it is all about the design. The original Malaysian knife (taji) made by the Ibans in Sarawak are thin, low point with curvy end and very light. Its lenght is about 3 to 3.5 inches. The knife can be in form of sulat or adjustable socket. Personally, i prefer the Malaysian knife. In Malaysia, a fight only took 10 to 30 seconds. I believed this is due to the knife used. My Malaysian friend told me that this knife suitable for any fighting style of the birds. He said that in Malaysia cutting ability of the birds is secondary, what all the birds needed to win is its two feet.

Malaysian knife is typically a flex blade that bends when a bird is hit and makes devastating wounds because it makes the blade wiggle in the bird
