A rigid, titanium body, laid into a traditional hickory handle. Subtle rubber grips.
A replaceable steel head - swing it, and it makes a keen noise.
The head spikes out cruelly, seizing and twisting itself into the wood - gripping its fibers closely to itself tighter and tighter - pulling itself into the bricks behind - until it snaps.
And then it lets go, and sidles away with bits of bone and tenderized viscera matted in its head.

I can better describe it in its sheathe
The Prismfang’s Sheathe
The sheath is a seamless fusion of polished black alloy and crystalline inlays, mirroring the blade’s elegance. A single prismatic vein runs along its length, catching light and subtly shifting hues. Its ultra-thin profile hugs the blade perfectly, ensuring a silent, fluid draw.
A magnetized locking mechanism replaces a traditional strap, holding the sword effortlessly in place while allowing instant access. The sheath’s mounting brackets attach smoothly to the wielder’s hip, distributing weight for perfect balance.
When sheathed, the katana’s light-distorting properties extend to the sheath, creating a slight ripple effect around it—almost as if the sword itself resists being contained.
**The Prismfang Katana**
A weapon that **commands attention without excess**—every detail is engineered for **precision, beauty, and intimidation**.
**Blade**
The blade is made from an **unknown crystalline alloy**, looking **almost like polished glass**, but impossibly strong. Unlike traditional katanas, it has a **razor-straight spine with a subtle inward curve**, blending ancient craftsmanship with a futuristic edge. The surface shifts between **mirror-like reflection and prismatic shimmer**, scattering light in mesmerizing, controlled patterns rather than chaotic bursts.
When moved, the blade refracts light **just enough to distort its surroundings**, creating a subtle, almost **mirage-like effect**. The edge itself has a **faint, geometric engraving**, its patterns **changing subtly when viewed from different angles**—as if the sword is adjusting itself to its wielder's intent.
#### **Hilt & Guard**
The hilt is **wrapped in a seamless, synthetic weave**—cool to the touch and **adaptive to grip pressure**. Instead of a traditional tsuba (guard), the katana features a **sleek, angular frame** that extends slightly outward, glowing faintly with an **internal energy pulse** that reacts to motion. The glow isn't excessive—just enough to make it **noticeable in dim light**, a controlled beacon of deadly elegance.
At the pommel, there is a **small, embedded gemstone-like node** that serves as both an energy regulator and a counterweight, ensuring **perfect balance in any grip or stance**.
#### **Presence & Effect**
- **When drawn, it leaves a soft, fading trail of light,** as if the blade itself is slicing through existence with calculated intent.

This item is a living thing. When targeted, it counts as a Living Creature in addition to its other target types. If destroyed or abandoned for more than two days, it dies and becomes unusable.
You also gain the following effects:
The pole of the hammer, and or the actual head of the hammer can be extended in their own x or y radiuses up to 50 ft total (cant extend the head 50 then the shaft 50). If Franky were to pin a target through his attack he could simply let go of the hammer and have it float in whatever size he left it, pinning the target into the position he left them. Franky can also change the shape of the hammer into that of any melee weapon (i.e. club to greatsword). This can change the range or damage of his attacks. As it changes it makes a wacky cartoon noise and does a sort of bounce effect into whatever item its turning into.
Franky got his new hammer after he beat a giant spider, and was unable to reach its position without throwing his hammer, which he did not want to do. Franky has developed a bond with his hammer and will always know where it is.
