From the V8 Rulebook
A melee weapon that:
- May stab and slash.
- Over 36” up to a maximum of 48”.
- At least 2/3rds of its length must be padded.
- If used to slash at least 2/3rds of its length must be Strike-Legal.
- Allows for 1/3rd of its length to be substituted for Heavy Padding.
- May be Double-Ended.
- Each end of a Double-Ended long weapon must be padded 1/3 the total length of the weapon, continuous from the tip. If an end is used to slash, that end must be Strike-Legal for 1/3 the total length of the weapon. This requirement replaces the standard requirement for padding on long weapons.
