I’m glad to present this work amid my busy workload. This weapon design is my entry for the Arena Breakout Melee Weapon Design Competition.
This is a concept piece and is not a game-ready asset.
The concept takes its starting point from the T-shaped tonfa once issued as standard police equipment. It combines characteristics of an ice axe and an arm blade, reinterpreted through a contemporary military-industrial design language. It supports single- and dual-wield configurations, while the grip housing can also serve as an ice axe. Its combat techniques can follow established tonfa practice. Releasing the grip safety and housing safety activates dynamic mechanisms including blade and pick extension and housing rotation. An illustrated weapon manual accompanies the design.
