Another form to adapt Espada Y Daga is the typically empty-handed version of Anyo Dalawa.
- You will see shearing applications in the first two moves along with "near-sided, far-sided stabs" that you learn from the Palis-Palis Espada Y Daga sets (actually the downward block can be executed as a Palis-Palis parry).
- The armbars can be executed using the hilt. Or they can become circle snake disarms (note: use your weapon not your flesh for the disarm).
- The High-Low block/parry covers for the kick.
- The three shears are self-evident.
- The parry-elbow strike could be a natural grip cut, then elbow technique or if switched to pakal grip, it becomes a reverse cut, the stab.
- The armbar applications from above can be repeated for the final one.
- The downward block, two strikes become again a slash with two stabs.
- I would execute the same return as Anyo Isa with a Bolo since one should not make a habit of point weapons towards oneself.

Yes, its amazing what hidden things you can find in the anyos. Its interesting what we can find, if we do the empty hand kata, empty handed, then put a blade or stick in our hand and do the same moves. I'm not saying we should create a new kata but simply see what we can find with a little looking.
