Straight Razor

The straight razor is a melee weapon in Fallout: New Vegas.

Characteristics
The straight razor is an old-fashioned shaving razor with a polished wooden handle. Though its blade is short, it's lightweight and can deliver several slashing hits in rapid succession.

This weapon is classified as a "Holdout" weapon, and can be smuggled into areas that prohibit any kind of weapons. It's the second weakest weapon, only "outdone" by the rolling pin.

Special V.A.T.S. attack
At the cost of 15 AP, you can perform a V.A.T.S. attack called Back Slash, which does 70% damage. It also provides Bonus Critical chance and Bonus Critical damage.

Durability
The straight razor can successfully strike about 370 times from full condition before breaking.
