Benefits of a Combat Fan?

Is there any compelling reason to use a Combat Fan? I know they were primarily used for signaling rather than combat. But on the combat side, do they really do anything for you that something like a knife doesn't do? Increased parrying surface? Could it be used with the main-gauche skill like a Slashing Wheel?

What about in a cinematic martial arts campaign?
