Mantis Blade

The Mantis Blade is a curved sword with a blade at each end. It is fairly light, scales D/D in Strength and Dexterity and needs 10 Strength and 12 Dexterity, so almost any melee character can pick it up. It uses the standard Spinning Slash skill.

Its charged heavy attack sends out a long-reaching slash, which gives it a little more range than you might expect from its thin blade.
