Reaper Chainsword
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
The Reaper Chainsword is a type of Chain Weapon used by Imperial Knights.[1]
Once at the beginning of human colonization of space these chainswords were used for tree-falling.[2] Though only the height of three men, the Reaper's adamantine teeth are no less deadly: swung with all the power of the Knight's servo-motors, the Reaper is capable of cleaving through practically anything, from the thick ferrocrete walls of a defensive bunker to a Super-Heavy Vehicle. The very sound of this chainsword has been known to cause enemies to flee.[1]
