Nice article! Some silat artists in Sumatra and Malaysia are still performing it I believe.
For me One of the best kerambit fight display would be the Kitchen Fight Scene from The Raid 2: Berandal. Epic finale fight, 10 minutes non stop with beautiful fighting coreography.
Yes, different weapons like Kerambit is represented very well in movies. We get to know different martial arts mainly via sports - fighting competition and movies. Still, there are many martial arts that we are not aware of.
