Rebar Club

The rebar club is a weapon in Fallout: New Vegas.

Characteristics
This crude weapon is a piece of concrete with three pieces of rebar sticking out of it. The club requires a Strength of 9 and a melee weapons skill of 50 for it to be at its maximum potential.

Special attack
It has a special Mauler attack that does regular damage in V.A.T.S. at the cost of 8 more action points, but has a chance to knock down enemies (requires a Melee skill of 50). Note that in Fallout: New Vegas melee weapons do double normal weapon damage when used in V.A.T.S.

It is possible to execute Mauler outside of V.A.T.S. (without the required Melee skill of 50 to perform the move) by initiating a power attack (hold attack button) while moving forward.

Durability
The rebar club can successfully strike about 1245 times from full condition before breaking.
