Chinese officer sword

The Chinese officer sword is a weapon in Fallout 4.

Characteristics
The Chinese Officer Sword has a medium swing speed and weighs 3lbs. It is useful for dealing with melee enemies with heavier weapons and can be extremely effective when used by a high strength player. The weapon can be modified with either a serrated blade (causing bleeding damage), an electrified blade (causing energy damage), or both.
