I was wondering about people's opinions on the back fist vs other simular techniques such as a reverse knife hand or hammerfist or even open palm. There are times when a backfist could be optimal but it seems to me more often than not one of these other techniques would be just as effective. My argument against the backfist would be that you run the risk of hurting your hand against someone's skull or other hard target like an elbo depending on the situation.
Obviously there are alot of situations where you don't run this risk and where a backfist is more optimal but I'm refering more to the use of the back fist in a boxing range against upperbody targets.
