PRODUCTION INFORMATION​

• Manufacturer: Breshig War Forge Consolidated.
• Affiliation: Breshig War Forge Consolidated and Strill Securities.
• Material: Anti-Corr 113 coating, Beskar blade, Maalras hide wrapped grip, reinforced Duraplast grip, Agrinium mesh lined electronics compartment, Combat de-ionizer, Ultrachrome circuitry, wiring and other electronics.
• Modularity: The grip wrap can be changed. Paint on the guard can be changed. Blade can be electroplated or coated in different materials.

SPECIAL FEATURES​

• Blade Construction:
  
  • Mono-molecular Edge: With a mono-molecular edge, the weapon has a higher chance of penetrating armor or natural carapace than a traditional Kal. This also has the added benefit of functioning even without power unlike several of the other systems built into the blade. Additionally, it has higher potential to do damage to body tissue, bones, organs and the like than a traditional Kal as well.
• Electronics:
  
  • Repulsor Generator: The user can activate the repulsor generator with the push of a button to augment the force of their strikes, greatly increasing armor penetrating capability and damage potential.
    
    • Repulsor Assisted Throwing and Recovery: Though weighted such that it can be thrown easily, the Kal's repulsor generator can also increase its velocity, range and can also return the blade to the user after it is thrown.
  • Ultrasonic Vibration Generator: The ultrasonic vibration generator's output can be adjusted using a sliding switch on the hilt. The lowest setting shuts the generator off.
  • HUD Link (optional): The blade can link to the user's HUD, putting the button controls at their disposal with all the convenience of a HUD. Status indicators also display over this link
• Power:
  
  • Enhanced (Mark IV-rating) Rylith Energy Cell w/ Toggleable Energy Cell Modes:
    
    • Energy Projector (Mark IV-rating)
    • Sonic Discharge Cell (Mark III-rating)
    • Ion Cell (Mark IV-rating)
    • Tremor Cell

STRENGTHS​

• Kal: The light weight of Kals make them perfect for use in the offhand and if the wielder requires it, they are resilient enough to be used to help parry an opponent's weapon. Additionally, the Breshig clans variant of Kals are weighted for throwing, making them an excellent weapon to reach for when a sword or an axe has too little reach and one's sidearm is unsuitable for the situation for any number of reasons.
• Armor Penetrating: The ultrasonic vibration generator, energy cell/projector and the mono-molecular edge enhance a Kal's armor penetrating qualities to an exponential level, even giving it the ability to potentially deal with exotic materials and advanced composites and alloys such as beskar, phrik and the like.
• Lethal Wounds: The weapon's ultrasonic vibration and repulsor generator greatly augment the deadly wounds that a Kal is capable of causing. Even a graze is capable of causing grievous wounds. In the case of the repulsor generator, what might be a critical wound with an unaided strike could become an execution blow with the aid of the generator.
• Rylith Power Cell: The weapon makes use of a Rylith Power Cell, making for significantly increased battery life, as well as the capability to recharge the cell with exposure to sunlight.

WEAKNESSES​

• Predictable: The Kal's path of return to the user is direct and thereby very easily predictable, making it easy for an opponent to intercept it.
• It's a Knife: Knives don't have reach, and the Kal isn't an exception.
• Beskar: The weapon is, at the end of the day, made from beskar. Given the number of anti-beskar measures in the galaxy, there's a relatively high chance of running into one of them.
• Out of Power: If the power cell runs out of charge, then weapons more advanced functions will be disabled, notably decreasing its lethality.
• EMP/Ion: Should the weapon's EMP/Ion defenses be overwhelmed by a powerful enough EMP/Ion weapon, the weapons more advanced functions would be rendered unusable, notably decreasing its lethality.

DESCRIPTION​

"You again!? How many shabla times do I have to tell you, it's a knife!"
- Frustrated Breshig War Forge Consolidated Sales Representative​

The K-03 Kal is a modernization of the company's K-02M model, bringing with it a number of new functions that greatly enhance its capabilities. The Breshig clans' version of the Kal is weighted for throwing, and like the previous version the K-03 is also constructed to be weighted for use as a throwing knife. The K-03 like the previous version also features an ultrasonic vibration generator and a mono-molecular edge but also features a repulsor generator for additional force when slashing or stabbing. Additionally, the repulsor generator also assists with throwing and retrieving the weapon. The ultrasonic vibration generator, energy cell/projector and the mono-molecular edge enhance a Kal's armor penetrating qualities to an exponential level, even giving it the ability to potentially deal with exotic materials and advanced composites and alloys such as beskar, phrik and the like​

Unfortunately, the Kal's path of return to the user is direct and thereby very easily predictable, making it easy for an opponent to intercept it. Additionally, the weapon is, at the end of the day, made from beskar. Given the number of anti-beskar measures in the galaxy, there's a relatively high chance of running into one of them. There is also the fact that due to the fact that a Kal is a knife, it's reach is limited. Finally, if out of power or should the weapon become disabled by a powerful enough EMP/Ion weapon, then it's more advanced functions would be rendered unusable, notably decreasing its lethality.​
