Favored by those with no talent for witchcraft, this exotic blade curves multiple times along its 3-1/2 feet. The sickle-sword’s hilt is long and curved, and its blade bears a small secondary grip partway up its length. These allow a wielder with a free hand to rapidly twist the sword in unpredictable ways.

When wielding a sickle-sword in one hand and nothing in the other, you can spend a swift action to gain a +2 bonus on your next attack roll before the end of your turn.
