No self-respecting Ork would be caught without some form of a weapon: a big knife or a set of heavy knuckles is an essential item in Ork society. Even [[Grots]] equip themselves with carefully honed little fungus knives they use to defend themselves. In fact, many Ork brewhouses and shops won't even let Orks without some form of weapon in, so that they won't be a liability if (i.e., when) a fight breaks out.{{Fn|2}}
