- Silent Knife: As like any kind of operations for Mandalorians. There comes a time when a Knife, is better than a sword, or even a firearm. Such as the case, this knife was produced to have a Vibroknife purpose. Having superior cutting and piercing power comparable to other weaponry of its size and calibur. Even sporting an extremely powerful energy cell that would allow the wielder to even pierce through Beskar armor given enough power is given behind the thrust.
- I(c)onic weaknesses: As with any kind of technology, ion and energy disruption weaponry can cause faulty damage to the Cells and power conduits within the knife. Due to no real protection given to it, the vibro function would become damaged and repaired after the conflict. In the mean time, its just a really sharp knife.
- Construction: as like any other kind of short hand weapon, many would call fighting with a knife as a main hand choice as a "Suicide Short" weapon. Where one has to get in extremely close in order for the weapon to be effective. More often, its paired with longer melee weaponry, or is used as a last resort.
- Not Balanced: This weapon is very much forward heavy in its construction. As such, its not balanced to be a thrown weapon. Its a utility or hunting knife or one to be used in direct combat with full control on the weapon. Not something you can throw with ease.
The life and culture of the Mandalorians, is one of conflict, hunting, and dedication to their kind. Be it in whatever form it is. For years, many mandalorians have used swords, axes, guns, and even hammers as their choice of weaponry. However, there is one weapon that is always left on the back burner.
The Knife.
A weapon so easily left behind in place of weaponry for a longer range. So many Mandalorians are trained to use a varity of weapons. One of which, is the Kal. While in Mando'a, Kal translates to Dagger, there are so many variations of the weapon, with many additions to it, There comes a time that one must upgrade an old design into the new era. One in which facing Force Users is growing as ever, fighting monsters, and armored combatants grows every day.
As such, this knife was aptly named, to do just that. Be a little prick in the side of all who may face Mandalorians.
