Stab-Only
Any segment of a weapon may be built to be Stab-Only.
- As the name implies, weapon segments built to be Stab-only can only be used to stab.
- A Stab-Only segment requires 6” of Strike-Legal Padding. This padding must begin at the Striking Tip and extend down the length of the weapon on all sides of the core (a flat blade tip cannot be stab-only).
- This padding cannot be reduced by Heavy Padding or Super Heavy Padding.
- A weapon that is only composed of Stab-Only segments can replace all other Strike-Legal Padding required by its type with Incidental Padding.
- A weapon with both regular and stab-only segments must still meet the full padding requirements for its type. For example, if a weapon needs to be 2/3 Strike-Legal, the completed weapon must still be 2/3 Strike-Legal overall even if the Stab-Only segment can be reduced to just 6".
- If a weapon has both regular and stab-only segments, they must not be arranged in such a way that could risk striking a player with a non-striking surface when the weapon is used to slash.
