- Deadly Weapon: Skira is an extremely lethal and dangerous weapon in close-quarters combat. When vibrating, it can potentially cut through most armors, inflict serious flesh wounds and its ion-pulse ability makes it deadly even to droids. Its Beskar blade also allows it to counter and even block lightsabers, making it an extremely able as well as extremely deadly weapon.
- Ion Field: The vibroknife creates a small ion field when activated that can disable electronics it makes contact with.
- Insulated Components: Skira's own components are insulated from damage, from ion sources, or otherwise.
- Reach: In dueling against larger melee weapons such as blades, poleaxes, spears, and whips, Skira can prove to be impractical at best, and impossible to use at worse. In addition to that, those who wield the knife only are put at a disadvantage against opponents brandishing ranged weapons.
- Self-Disabler: Although Skira's components are insulated from its ion field, its user is not and must be careful that they do not disable their own electronics during use.
An heirloom kal dagger, Skira is a blade that has been passed down to different members of Clan Dragr through generations; legend says that the blade was forged and first owned by Kol Dragr himself. In recent times it was passed down from Tek'in Dragr to his protege Siv Dragr. After the Sith purge of Mandalore, it is perhaps one of the last remaining heirlooms of Clan Dragr, making it extremely valuable.
An extremely deadly vibroknife, the Skira vibrates at extremely high speeds when activated. This allows its monomolecular beskar blade to cut through a wide variety of armor, seriously injuring whoever is unfortunate enough to come across it. It also features a miniaturized ion field generator that enables it to disable electronic components it comes into contact with.
It is worth noting that while the blade is extremely deadly, its overall small size makes it a somewhat impractical weapon in dueling those who have sword-length or longer weapons, as well as opponents who are using blasters and other ranged weapons. Altogether, the Skira is a very deadly and potent knife and an extremely valuable asset of Siv's.
