This article has been updated for Kenshi version 1.0.37 (Experimental).
A nasty weapon, designed for hacking through meat. The crude bluntness of the weapon means victims don't bleed to death so often, they just get hacked and maimed.
A Flesh Cleaver is a Hacker Class weapon, with a decent balance between Cutting and Stun Damage , and a lower than normal Bleed Rate. It is the preferred weapon of Cannibals and the Shrieking Bandits . The Flesh Cleaver is tied with the Wakizashi for having the shortest reach of all weapons.
This weapon has inventory dimensions of 2x8, meaning it can only be used as a primary weapon.
