SPECIAL FEATURES

- The sword is quite light, thanks to being made of songsteel.

STRENGTHS
- Songsteel: Made of brilliant and rare songsteel, this sword is light and resistant to lightsabers, blaster fire, and corrosion.
- Vibrosword: Vibroswords utilize high speed sonic vibrations, allowing Fukaikiru to perform far deadlier than the average blade. This wakizashi is no different.
- Cutting Edge: This wakizashi is brilliantly sharp, able to cut efficiently through many fabrics, cloths, armorweaves, and leathers. It also can pierce light wood.
WEAKNESSES
- Hilt: Fukaikiru sports a small hilt, only allowing for a one hand grip.
- Sharp, But Not A Lightsaber: Songsteel is a remarkable metal, and the vibroblade tech only adds to this sword's power. However, the blade is still unable to cut through solid metals and tough materials like a lightsaber can.
DESCRIPTION
Based off of her family's katana, Utaken, Fukaikiru (Deep Cut) is a wakizashi sword meant to accompany and contrast Utaken. It is both built off of Utaken's design, and given new life of its own. A glistening songsteel weapon, the wakizashi is light and impervious against lightsaber strikes, blaster fire, and rust. Fukaikiru utilizes vibrosword technology, which gives it a far more brutal cut and swing. It is smaller than a katana, but longer than a tanto. Mira requested that a master weaponsmith of Serenno craft it for her, and one obliged.
