DESCRIPTION
Ever find yourself fighting an unwanted battle with the Sith? Ever think to yourself - I’m doomed - as soon as they draw their lightsabre? Ever wish you could do something about it? Ever wanted to feel the raw power of confidence as you punch a Lightsabre?* If you’ve answered Yes to any of these questions, the newest creation of Republic Engineering Corporation is here for you.

Fresh from our Foundries across the galaxy, the REC-VKN/01 "Tekko" - Pattern Vibroknuckler was designed with your safety and bloodthirst in mind. Using original and patented** technologies recovered from restored Pre-Plague databanks, we’ve managed to marry the trusted capabilities of a vibroblade, with the esoteric mysteries of magnetism and projected plasma.

Through the combination of these two items, the “Tekko” was capable of not only causing considerable organic damage at maximum vibration settings, but the melee weapon was capable of engaging those pesky Sith whenever they jump you in a dark alley. Show them what for as you punch their lightsabre, and catch them off-guard with a lucky strike to their exposed ribs.

With a “Tekko” gripped in either hand - you’ll easily become the change you want to see and stay safe in a cruel Universe.***

*Republic Engineering Corporation does not guarantee that the Tekko can punch Lightsabres. It's advised that if you encounter a Sith in a dark alley, you run to your Local Authorities.
** Republic Engineering Corporation does not hold itself accountable to any similarities to Thyrsian and Kyuzo weaponry. The “Tekko” is wholly original.
*** Republic Engineering Corporation does not hold itself accountable for your safety unless you're an Employee. Our Apologies in advance.

Nice to see people giving some love to the NFU weaponry, especially something as fun as a knuckleduster.
