Handclaws

Neko-te (Japanese: Neko = 'cat', te = 'hand') or neko-de are hand-claws more or less identical to the Indian Bagh nakh, though usually consisting (classically) of a wooden handle with a series of blades afixed to it. Use of the neko-te is identical to the bakh nahk, as are the injuries inflicted. A form of neko-te was used by Hugh Jackman for his role as Wolverine in the X-Men movie franchise.
