Slash Harken

Slash Harken are usually attached in pairs on the hips knightmare frames. They are wire guided, and have a blunt object, that varies in shape, at the end. They can be used in multiple ways varying from offensive to defensive, or as a means of transportation via anchoring them in an object, and retracting the cable. Some Knightmare models change the placement of the slash harken to the wrists such as the Tristan, Shenhu, and the Lancelot which locates pairs both on the wrists and hips. Other variations include the placement in the chest of the Guren, while the Gawain uses ten slash harken in place of its fingers. The slash harkens that the Tristan uses are capable of combining and releasing an energy blast, while the ones the Shenhu uses are electrified and also capable of rotating along with the wrists.
