Reaper Chainsword[1b]
The Reaper Chainsword is a type of Chain Weapon used by Imperial Knights.[1a][1b]
Once at the beginning of human colonisation of space these chainswords were used for tree-falling.[2] The height of three men[1b], the Reaper's adamantine teeth are no less deadly: swung with all the power of the Knight's servo-motors, the Reaper is capable of cleaving through practically anything, from the thick ferrocrete walls of a defensive bunker to a Super-Heavy Vehicle.[1a][1b] The very sound of this chainsword has been known to cause enemies to flee.[1b]
A known sub-pattern of the Reaper Chainsword is the Bellatus Pattern, which is used by Bellatus Pattern Knights.[3]
