Aloha bruddah Gabe,
I should have brought you in on this thread right away. For some reason you had slipped my mind. However, I am glad you found this thread, so that you can shed light on all the island warrior factions. Haumana 2000 is the man to talk to on the subject of island warriors and their arts. How are all your projects coming along?
A hui hou

I have seen on many occasions the warrior weapons of Fiji, however, other than what the weapon was used for, was the only info that I got. I studied a Hawaiian art called the "Lua" from the Hawaiian Islands. I have seen several of the weapons, and have used them the way they were used in the ancient times. Lua is the only warrior system that I know of that exists as a system. I'm sure there are people in other parts of Polynesia that could elaborate more on the fighting systems of the other islands.
One interesting note is my cousin's husband is from an island in Micronesia, I'm not going to attempt the spelling, but it's people see the first sunlight of the day. He gave to me a weapon that was used as a secondary weapon much like the kerambit was used as a secondary weapon to the Indonesian's. It had straw at the top that hid a shark's tooth and was lined down the sides with several shark's teeth. It looks like a popsicle stick that you didn't want to mess around with.
