I'm not sure what to make of D'Argo's Qualta Blade. I don't have a lot of experience with swords. Or people who carry swords. My glow-in-the-dark light saber was about as swashbuckling as I ever got.

But the big guy carries his around everywhere. He doesn't talk about it too much though. I joked with him once that the Qualta Blade is more of a cut-up than he is. I don't think I'll make that joke again.

See, D'Argo's not the most light-hearted guy in the universe. In fact, I'm not even sure if Luxans have a word for "humor" in their language. That's okay [ QUALTA BLADE ]

though. You don't really need rapier wit when you're carrying around the rapier itself.

The Qualta Blade is about three and a half feet long and, from the way the Lumbering Luxan swings it around, it's made of a metal even lighter than titanium.

And I almost forgot: it also seamlessly converts into an energy rifle on par with Aeryn's PK Pulse Rifle. You've got to admire the Luxans. It takes a certain amount of care and finesse to develop a two-in-one weapon, good over short distances and killer in close range. It slices, it dices - but does it make julienne fries?
