Machete (Fallout: New Vegas)

The machete is a weapon in Fallout: New Vegas. It appears as a long, sharpened piece of scrap metal taped to a wooden handle.

Characteristics
This big, long, sharp blade is good for cleaving limbs off of the native Joshua trees or from an unlucky mutant. This weapon has a strength requirement of 3. This weapon also has a bonus limb damage. Caesar's Legion is known for using this weapon as one of their soldier's primary weapons.

If you hold down the attack button to charge a power move, you spin it around and swing up while holding it upside down. This can also be achieved by having a high melee level and going into VATS, where it presents an option of a special move, chosen by the Y button on the Xbox, "Triangle" button on the PS3, and R on the PC.
