Machete (Fallout: New Vegas)

The machete is a weapon in Fallout: New Vegas.

Characteristics
Rather than a regular machete, this weapon appears to be make-shifted, with a long, sharpened piece of a lawn mower blade taped to a wooden handle. It is used as the primary melee weapon for Caesar's Legion. Besides having a low Strength requirement, it also does bonus limb damage, making it a good melee weapon for intermediate players. Holding down the attack button causes the player to swing it around and up at their target.

Additionally, the player has access to the Back Slash V.A.T.S. attack, which costs 16 AP to use (as opposed to the normal 20) but only inflicts 70% of the Machete's normal damage.

Variants

 * Machete Gladius
 * Liberator
 * Broad machete

Locations

 * One can be found in the Abandoned shack N-NW of the Yangtze Memorial.
 * A machete can be obtained by talking to Caesar after returning from the vault under The Fort.
 * If you choose to kill Benny by dueling him in the arena, you can obtain a machete from his body.
 * You can find one in a pile of ashes near a dead body inside of Nipton, by a trailer on the right side of the street, along with a set of Caesar's Legion armor.
 * Legion assassins will also carry them.
 * Various Freeside thugs can be found carrying them.
 * A unique variant, Liberator, is carried by the Legion Decanus Dead Sea at Nelson.
 * There is one in the yard of the New California Republic Correctional Facility, stuck and left in an overturned bench.
