Certainly.

[Ignis does as requested, rotating his wrist just slightly so that his grip is easier to see. As he waits for Kidwun to let him know they're done looking, he speaks a little more on the general usefulness of the technique.]

Even with perfect vision, there is no way to be as precise with a kicked blade as a thrown one. Really, this more about intimidating an opponent that is smart enough to feel such a thing or distracting one that isn't. If I'm going to do this, I do it at the beginning of battle or only when I am a fair distance from my target. That plus the fact that you can't aim as well with a kicked blade, means you should always aim for the largest part of your target. Chest over wrist on a human, for example.
