Liberator (weapon)

Liberator is a Melee skill unique weapon in Fallout: New Vegas.

Characteristics
Liberator is a unique machete that sports a higher damage per hit and triple the damage per second. It was given to Dead Sea by his centurion in recognition of his contribution to the victory over the Sun Dog tribe. Even though it is a unique weapon, it shares the same appearance as any other machete.

Special attack
It has a special Back Slash attack that does 70% damage in V.A.T.S. at the cost of 3 fewer action points (requires a Melee skill of 50). Note that in Fallout: New Vegas melee weapons do double normal weapon damage when used in V.A.T.S.

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
Liberator can successfully strike about 370 times from full condition before breaking.
