Bastet's Khopesh
A Monolithan inspired sickle-sword that had evolved from battle axes.
This blade was designed for hooking an opponent's shield or disarming them. The blade is only sharpened on the outside portion of the curved end. The khopesh evolved from the epsilon or similar crescent shaped axes that were used in warfare. Note, however, that the khopesh is not an axe. Unlike an axe, the khopesh did not make push-cuts, but rather slashes, like a sabre.

Bast's own Khopesh is "Unique" when compared to the other Khopesh in the Clan's. Her's is more finely polished, and has a carved and smooth dragon bone grip. It's also a lot bigger than the other more 'standard' variants, with a blade length of about 4 feet. Despite this, the weapon is surprisingly lighter than other Khopesh, leaving those whom witness the blade to speculate it is naught but a forged weapon that was made of mixed Mithral and Bronze, which can be accurately suggested. The Dragon Bone grip was given to Bast at an unknown time and by an unknown source at this time. It's offhandedly named: Sinhāsana Gārḍa, the Throne Guard
