Weapon Maintenance-Edged

Weapon Maintenance—Edged Martial Basic 60 hours Included for free with an appropriate weapon proficiency of level V or higher, this skill enables you to keep your weapons polished and deadly. Without good upkeep, edges dull, straps fray, and rust settles into metal. The Game Master may reduce bonuses or weapon features, and may even add penalties if care slips far enough. Basic sharpening, grinding out chinks, polishing, and handle wrapping are included in this skill. Unlike Blade Etiquette this provides no damage bonus, but everything from swords to arrowheads need routine maintenance.
