Steel blades

Blades are most commonly made from steel and may be single or double-edged. Hand blades may be referred to as daggers, dirks or knives, while a short blade may be a machete or short sword.

Chain blades

A chain blade looks like a slightly thicker and heavier version of a blade, although they always have rounded tips. Going around the edge, in a similar manner to a chainsaw is a belt of diamond teeth that runs at thousands of revolutions per second. A power module is inserted into the handle through the base and provides enough power for twenty rounds of combat, before the power cell needs to be swapped for another and/or recharged.
