The double-chained kama from Ultimate Combat is a two-handed melee weapon, which normally wouldn't qualify for the weapon finesse feat. However, in the description, it states that "the wielder can attack as if armed with a single kama in each hand." Does this permit a character to use the double-chained kama in conjunction with the weapon finesse feat even though it's considered a two-handed weapon? What about when making a reach attack or combat maneuver with the weapon?
With the addition of weapons from sources like the Adventures Armory and Ultimate Combat, is there a chance there might be an updated list of non-light melee weapons that can benefit from the weapon finesse feat?
I do believe that the general consensus is that no one really knows how that weapon works. From what I've read a good number of people rule that you can use weapon finesse for the kamas but not when using it to attack at reach.
That was my interpretation of things as well. It's also how I'm reading into using the iron claw as a buckler even if you're not proficient with the claw as a weapon.
