Horse Chopper
[Sabre class]
Blood loss	0.90x
Attack	-4
Defence	+4
Reach	18
The classic sabre. Does more damage than a regular katana, at the cost of extra weight. The heavier blade is better for defending, but still curved for cutting damage. They're very common, so can usually be found cheaper than other weapons of similar quality.
