The Widowmakers (Night Lords)
The Widowmakers were micro-serrated throwing blades used by the Primarch Konrad Curze. They were based on the blades used for signature kills by certain Nostraman assassin-cults. Curze favoured the use of these vicious, yet highly precise, weapons over firearms in battle, using them to disable and maim as he willed.[1]
