Multi-Ended Weapons

Measuring segments of a multi-ended weapon.

Any melee weapon may have multiple segments and Striking Tips.

Each segment that is intended to slash and stab must be Strike-Legal for at least 1/3 of the weapons total length or 18”, whichever is less, starting from the Striking Tip and moving continuously inwards. If the segment merges before the required amount is reached, the area of merged padding counts towards all merged segments.

  • Madu segments intended to stab and slash only require Strike-Legal padding for 1/3 of the weapon's total length or 12”, whichever is less.
  • Segments intended to be Stab-Only only require 6" of Strike-Legal padding.
  • Any non-striking segments of a weapon that could reasonably come into contact with another player while striking, such as crossguards, must be covered with Incidental Padding.

Multi-ended weapons must meet all other requirements for its weapon type.
