Katana (GRA)

The katana is a weapon added by the Fallout: New Vegas add-on Gun Runners' Arsenal.

Characteristics
The single edged razor-shape blade is extremely effective against fleshy foes and has a high attack speed of around three attacks per second. Its special V.A.T.S. attack is "Unlabored Flawlessness", where an attack is launched in reverse grip. With all these attributes factored in, it makes the Katana a perfect choice when completing the You Don't Belong In This World! GRA challenge.

Behind the scenes

 * The name of the special attack is a reference to Ninja Gaiden, where the Unlabored Flawlessness is the strongest weapon in the game.
