Chopper

Chopper is a weapon in Fallout: New Vegas. It is a unique variant of the cleaver.

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

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). 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
Chopper can successfully strike about 1245 times from full condition before breaking.
