Combat Cleaver

This article has been updated for Kenshi version 1.0.37 (Experimental).

A shorter and lighter weapon, the Combat Cleaver unlike most Hackers has no stat penalties. It is the preferred weapon of the basic soldiers of The Holy Nation, Bloodraiders, and the Meitou version can be found on the King Gurgler in the Island Lab.

This weapon has inventory dimensions of 2x8, meaning it can only be used as a primary weapon.
