Kali is a knife and stick fighting art from the Phillipines with both defence and offence. Silat is a term (like kung fu) used to denote a large group of malay fighting arts and depending on what you study you can get all sorts of weapon training (I originally learnt to use sai from a silat instructor though obviously under a different name). A silat practitioner fought in the the early UFC series.
