Industrial Hand

The industrial hand is a weapon in the Fallout: New Vegas add-on Lonesome Road.

Background
The industrial hand was a tool in the Divide consisting of a mechanical glove with a circular saw blade mounted on the back, self-powered by its own supply and probably use in industrial work for cutting materials such as metal or plastics, now re-purposed as a devastatingly unarmed weapon.

Characteristics
The blade extends forwards when the weapon is used. Unlike other unarmed weapons, holding down the attack button when wielding the industrial hand will cause continuous damage to targets in contact with the blade, using the same principle as a Ripper or chainsaw.

Locations

 * Ashton Silo Control Station, in a footlocker on a shelf outside, to the right when facing the entrance to the silo lift
 * Ulysses' Temple, in a footlocker in the room with three eyebot charging stations. The door is opened with the nearby terminal.
 * Between Boxwood Hotel Roof and Ulysses' Temple, found in a footlocker at a campsite in the centre of the area

Bugs

 * Selecting V.A.T.S. special moves (i.e. cross, uppercut) will cause the player to stand in place and continuously punch during the sequence, without contacting the target enemy. Possibly fixed by repeatedly trying to access the Pip-Boy (Xbox).
