Description

The first weapon you'll encounter in Scaffold 22, the Combat Knife is a primitive, sharp-edged weapon generally relegated to the realm of last-resort defense.

The knife exists in as many variations and flavors as there are habitable worlds. Some models such as the 'AgLaz Combat Knife' or 'Partak Survival Blade' are produced industrially and marketed to hunters, security professionals, or enthusiasts by well-known corporations. The most common bladed weapon however is the homemade variant crafted by street thugs and other petty criminals.

Despite their simplicity, bladed weapons are just as deadly as strictly-regulated firearms. Indeed, statistics published by the Church of Eden suggest that over 40% of all homicides reported can be attributed to primitive implements of this sort. Consequently, several attempts have been launched by the Clergy to cull the number of shivs, knives, and other sharp-edged instruments in undesirable hands. Unfortunately, success remains minimal as enforcement is all but impossible, and blades of all sorts are common to all but the most pacifistic societies in the galaxy.
