"What style...?"
Some folks put too much into a name. When I asked a similar question many years ago I was told "There is no name. It is Pentcha Silat. If I told you the name of it you would not understand it or even be able to pronounce it so why bother. It is just silat. It means fighting."
Or something to that effect...
For me he would say think of it like Judo with a knife.  :0
