The petar was a melee weapon created by the Kyuzo.[1]
A double-bladed dagger-like weapon, the petar had a bronzium knuckle-guard, and featured a conductive tempered carbon edge; with a flick of a button, this edge became energized with a scintillating monomolecular energy cord, vastly increasing the cutting power and deadliness of the weapon. Powering this deadly edge were rechargeable energy cells sealed within the hilt of the weapon.[1]
Dryden Vos owned a pair of custom made petars, carefully designed to account for his fingers and claws, and perfectly weighted to fit his reach and fighting style.[1]
