Vibrodagger

About the Vibrodagger

A generator in the hilt drives the short blade into a blur of ultrasonic oscillation, and that invisible motion is what makes it lethal, sawing through hide, cloth, and light plate that would blunt an ordinary knife. The vibrodagger is the assassin's and the desperate spacer's friend, small enough to conceal in a boot or sleeve and quick enough to end a fight before it starts. Its finesse comes from the wrist rather than the shoulder, rewarding speed and precision over brute force, and its dual edge lets it slash or punch a hole with equal ease. From Nar Shaddaa back alleys to the belt of many a bounty hunter, the little humming blade has settled countless quiet arguments where a blaster would have drawn too much attention.
