Parrying Dagger, Swordbreaker (Pathfinder Equipment)

A swordbreaker is similar to normal parrying daggers, but has a very sturdy blade with slots on one side, much like the teeth of a comb. The teeth can catch the blade of the opponent's sword and hold it fast, allowing a variety of follow-up techniques. If used to make a disarm attempt, the swordbreaker is treated as a one-handed weapon rather than a light weapon. A swordbreaker parrying dagger is specifically designed to be used in the off-hand of a fencer and are often wielded paired with a rapier. When used as an off-hand weapon, the swordbreaker parrying dagger grants a +1 shield bonus as the wielder can use it to intercept and "turn" attacks.
