Blue and gold blotches spread over the blade, the colours steel takes on when it is case hardened in a carbon-rich furnace. The falchion is a curved single-edged blade, closer to a short sword than to a knife.

The view model holds 14,613 polygons against the stock knife’s 1,040, on 39 bones, and the knife alone is unwrapped onto six narrow maps, the tallest 140×1013. Two more textures dress the hands: a 536×542 glove and a 376×742 forearm. The third-person model was rebuilt as well, at 3,599 polygons where the stock one has 112, on the same six knife maps. The idle runs 385 frames with an inspect worked into it. There is no dropped-knife model in the archive, so on the ground it stays standard.
