  • The Type-13 Energy Weapon/Short Sword, is the technological update of a Sangheili ritualistic hunting weapon, the curveblade, mostly commonly used as a multi-purpose close combat weapon. The blade is exceedingly dangerous in close quarters, where a skilled wielder can easily parry and slay a swordsman, or cut vital arteries, ligaments or tendons, or most commonly, go for throat strikes. Though the blade mostly consists of a curved quarter circle blade, ideal for clashing, it features a stabbing blade, making it excellent for short range strikes at an opponent, allowing it to pierce vital organs and drop an opponent dead, near instantly. It has a curved hand guard, making it excellent for slashing and defence. The blade, to some degree, requires more finesse to wield and in skilled hands, results in deadly and stealthy weapons. More traditional Curveblades are still in non-standard service, being easier to acquire for main infantry, who have often trained with such hunting blades as children and is still popular with older soldiers, who prefer it over it's plasma equivalent out of nostalgia. The weapon shares the same power supply as the Energy Sword, but has lighter power requirements, effectively creating a weapon with a much vaster lifespan. The curveblade can be used normally, held with the blade pointing away from the user, or inverted with the blade pointing towards the user, with the two styles referred to as Tur'kau and Tur'Kath, translated to English as 'jaw open', and 'jaw closed'. Tur'kau is the standard style, near identical to the way a normal, full length sword is used. IN this manner, its used as a hunting tool, a combat weapon, a knife, so on. The other method is more clandestine, often used by thieves, assassins, and in more recent years, by special operations units. When held in this manner, what was formally the hand guard is now a slashing tool, for cutting ligaments and arteries. The spike can then be used to deliver the killing blow with short, sharp, jabs, often to organs and arteries.
