Helion's new "Vorpal" personal defense
weapon uses the latest in technology to create a blade that is harder than
dikote, yet every bit as tough as steel. The result is a blade which can
hold a razor edge which is strong enough to pierce almost any armor but will
not break under any but the most extreme of circumstances. Every Vorpal comes
complete with a lifetime warranty which will cover the replacement of the
sword, should it ever break under normal circumstances.
"Personal defense weapon"?! What
kind of drek is that?

Probably marketing-speak for "we
can't come up with a civilian use for this"

| Due to the extreme hardness of the ceramic used in making this weapon, the use of a Dikote glaze on this weapon is ultimately infeffective. Additionally, the use of a monofilament edge proves unnecessary due to the edge imparted on the blade during manufacture. Taser-edge and Torch enhancements are not possible for this weapon, though Chem-lacing works fine. | |||
