Just wondering, because I have come across refferences to them other than Marvel Comics, though Wolverine is one of my favorite characters. Okay, what are these tools called? I am just wondering because I am making a character for a chatroom-based online anime themed roleplay that includes a ninja element (think Naruto and Ninja Scroll). Ashukos were used to assist in climbing as well, but occasionally were employed as weapons from what I understand. I just wanted to use something that had actually existed in some form or other. The only things close to what I am looking for were ashukos and hand-held nekode.
