I saved up 2,000 scrip for the darkstone stiletto because I assumed that it would work with ambush slash, but it does not.

Both it and my thrusting blade (which I can slash with) have somewhat fair slice, while my haralun stiletto (which I cannot slash with) only has low slice.

It's a bit frustrating not having any visual way to determine which weapons will work with slash and which will not. I likely would not have chosen the stiletto if I had known in advance, so I have to admit that it's pretty disappointing.

I decided to test a few weapons (most from Knife Clan) to see which work and which don't. Green weapons can slash, red weapons cannot. Still pretty confused here.

From elanthipedia: "Requires at least top of the somewhat fair slice range on the weapon and a strength check against the weapon's weight."

My guess is the ones with 4 slice that you have red are the lower end of the somewhat fair slice range and the green are the higher end.

And it's certainly not weight, since he's got strength to slash with a 30 stone weapon, and the ones which failed are less than that.

To OP: I'd past something in the appropriate folder asking for the item to be refunded since it's literally impossible to test without having it in hand. You should get your scrip back.

I would like that option, I know it will never happen, to make those weapons able to slash with.

somewhat heavy (8/27) puncture damage
fair (5/27) slice damage
low (3/27) impact damage

The pattern-welded katar is dismally (2/17) designed for improving the force of your attacks.

You are certain that the katar is very well (10/17) balanced and is inadequately (4/17) suited to gaining extra attack power from your strength.

You are certain that the pattern-welded katar is extremely resistant to damage (15/18), and is in pristine condition (98-100%).
You are certain that the pattern-welded katar weighs exactly 22 stones.
