HIRAKEN

   
         
   

   
         
    You can use second knuckles or you can use the part of the palm (circled) to deliver a strike. The first form can be used both on soft tissues, and (not that often) on ribs. The second form is used for blocks and to deliver powerful "shocking" or "breaking" punches.
