“For the record… that’s not how you use a phurbu. In Tibetan Bon shamanism, you use it to pin the demon to the ground (usually by the foot!) to hold it in place to be dispelled.
Another pop-culture variant of the tool I love, however is in the movie of The Shadow.”

From the library at the University of Virginia:
“The phurba (kila, phur pa) or ritual dagger is a tantric ritual implement used symbolically to conquer evil spirits or negative emotional states, as well as avert obstacles. Phurbas are used in esoteric rites by high level tantric practitioners. The phurba is made in three separate segments: the head, the shank, and the triangular blade. The three-sided blade has two serpent-like creatures called nagas (klu) entwined around it, and above each of the corners of the blade there is a gilded crocodile (makara). The shank is comprised of two inverted lotuses at the center, with what appear to be decorative knot-designs on either side. Finally, at the top of the dagger are the three heads of the deity Vajrakilaya, each with three eyes, blazing bushy hair and eyebrows and skull crowns with turquoise inlay. The triple-head is crowned with a miniature half-vajra. When using the phurba, the meditator recites the appropriate liturgy, and invites the actual deity to abide within the dagger. The practitioner then imagines that he or she is frightening and subduing the evil spirits by impaling them with the blade.”

From Wikipedia:
[sic]
In demonology:
“Being a deity of the desert, god of fire, which is one of negative aspects of the sun, god of the underworld, and also being a god of one of the religions which rivaled Christianity and Judaism, Nergal was sometimes called a demon and even identified with Satan. According to Collin de Plancy and Johann Weyer, Nergal was depicted as the chief of Hell’s "secret police”, and worked as an “an honorary spy in the service of Beelzebub”
