An Inward Knifehand Strike is one kind of Knifehand Strike. In particular, it is made with an inward motion (as opposed to, for example, a downward motion). As with all knifehand strikes, the strike is made with the muscled side (i.e., the pinky side) of the open hand. The striking arm is sweeps inward, arm held mostly straight, twisting to finish palm-up at the end of the movement, as if striking the opponent's neck with the muscled side of the hand.
