Arbir

The Arbir is a halberd approximately five feet (1.5 m) long.

The plane of the blade has a shallow groove running along it that allows the user to determine exactly where the cutting edge is at all times. The arbir is one of three special weapons used by members of the Persatuan Pentjak Silat Selurah Indonesia (PPSI).
