Falx is hand weapon which was favored by the [[Echvehnurth]]. This weapon was described as being a some sort of polearm of two and a half meters long, a hybrid spear and a straightened out scythe. With half of its length straight handgrip and the other half a long blade with a slight bias hook, the inside curve of which was razor sharp and it could go through almost any metal. The only way to break those blade was to use [[lignite]] - a mixture of liquid nitrogen which when it was sprayed on the falx blades made them brittle to the point they could be shattered under a foot.{{Fn|1}}
The use of falx by [[Echvehnurth]] in combat involved a technique of spinning and sweeping like a flail which resulted in lopping off limps, heads and even bisecting the whole torsos.{{Fn|1}}
