Chopper

The Chopper is a weapon in Fallout: New Vegas, and is the unique variant of the typical cleaver.

Characteristics
The Chopper is an aged and rusted version of a cleaver with white tape wrapped around the handle, and with the blade curved upward. Additionally, it deals more damage than a normal cleaver, including higher Critical Hit and limb damage.

Special attack
It has a special Back Slash attack, which does 70% damage in V.A.T.S. at the cost of 5 fewer Action Points (requires a Melee skill of 50).

It is possible to execute Back Slash 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 Chopper can successfully strike about 1,245 times from full condition before breaking.

Variants
Cleaver, the standard variant found throughout the Mojave Wasteland.

Location
Found at the Wolfhorn ranch, inside the farmhouse on the stove on the right wall of the house. It can be taken without Karma loss.
