Antimatter Sword

The antimatter sword is a weapon of terrible power and destruction. Its design is based off of the ancient samurai weapon, the Wakizashi. The sword features a blade made of refined Tauite, and, like the mineral, has a dull black hue, giving it quite a unique appearance.

The blade is covered from tang to tip in Tauite-reinforced nano-particles which sense movement, becoming negatively charged when the sword is swung. This creates an antimatter skin on the blade of the weapon, which, given the nature of antimatter, completely annihilates any normal matter it comes into contact with - even air molecules. Because of this, the antimatter sword creates a booming thunderclap every time it is swung, accompanied by a blinding flash as the air is literally cleaved in two. A powerful pocket of magnetic energy tuned only to the nano-particles keeps the antimatter explosion away from the blade, yet contained within a small radius around the weapon's edges. There is no material on or in the Earth - even Tauite itself, that the sword cannot easily cut through.

The antimatter sword takes the destructive power of a nuclear blast and allows its wielder to harness the energy to devastating effect. There is no other weapon to equal its power and savagery.
