**Scythe**
\n 
\n The scythe does the same damage as its sword counterpart, with a longer reach and cooldown, but has a much higher sweeping ratio, and if you right click while holding one, you can activate its ability and steal 2 hearts from each mob\/player around you, and take them as absorption hearts.<\/p>\n
**Broadsword**
\n 
\n (Uses slabs for wood and stone, and corresponding nuggets for iron, gold and copper)<\/p>\n
+1 damage as its axe counterpart, but with a longer cooldown and a bit more range, when you kill a mod or player with it, you gain strength 2 for 3 seconds<\/p>\n
**Katana**
\n 
\n Does +1 damage as its sword counterpart with a slightly faster cooldown, when your right click with it you dash 5 blocks forward, and deal 3 hearts of damage that ignore armor to all entities that you pass through<\/p>\n
**Knuckles**
\n 
\n Deal +1 damage as its sword counterpart with a faster cooldown, but much less range, and much lower durability, if you hold one in each hand, and right click you gain resistance 5 for 1 second (Basically a parry)<\/p>\n
**Staff**
\n 
\n Deals -1 damage as its sword counterpart with a much faster cooldown, much more range, and it can block like a shield, but you can still sprint and move at normal speed while using it<\/p>\n
**Rapier**
\n 
\n Deals -1 damage as its sword counterpart with a much faster cooldown and much more range (like the staff) but it can deal percing attacks up to 4 blocks away, like the spear<\/p>\n
