Leopard Blow

The "Leopard Blow," "leopard punch," or "leopard fist" is a common term for a specific type of striking blow, associated primarily with the Leopard Kung Fu substyle of the Five Animals in Chinese martial arts. The maneuver involves folding the first two joints of the fingers inward and striking with the foreknuckles.

The Leopard Blow is also the name of a special maneuver used by Lady Shiva, a comic book supervillain published by DC Comics.
