      Coming from a Wing Chun background, I need to know.

      Hello Dallas, Yes, in silat the center knuckle is king, although ALL parts of the hand, including the back are used, depending upon the target and the angle of the deflecting punch/block.

      Dallas C is that you???? Dave here, long time. Was wondering how you were. So are you into Kuntao now? I think you'll find Kuntao will blend very well with Wing Chun. PM me and I'll give you my contact info. Dave

      Art, Seems to me the issue was laid out in the initial phrasing of the question: "Coming from a WC background, I need to know..."I doubt he missed all the hitters, but he comes from a style that makes a big deal about certain knuckles being the points of contact in a straight punch.

      Hey now,I also come from a Wing Chun background but I think I get the idea of using different weapons for different things.

      Hi Tim,No offense taken, I was only kidding. Sometimes people need to adjust to my sense of humour

      :-I'm beginning to see this as a very distinct line of de-markation between the skilled practitioners who join our Family and the rash beginners who come looking for the "Bruce Lee" pill that makes them superhuman in 90 days . . . so I'm thinking that creating a couple of different threads addressing each of those criteria is apropos.
