Yes, wicked wounds, much like the ceremonial Gurkha sword. And, like the Gurkha sword, rather cumbersome to use. The balance is very awkward, similar to a large axe but with more overall weight distribution. It takes quite a bit of work to get used to it. The things just move weird.
On the other hand, a friend of mine uses a small kopesh in throwing competitions, and he is very handy with it, far better than with traditional knives or axes. I haven't tried it myself, so I don't know if it simply suits his throwing style, but his scores have improved noticeably since he started using it.
