    A culturally significant weapon of Kikongo make, the Ikakalaka was featured in several pre-cataclysm films distributed around the Three Sisters' regions. Its prior usage was primarily as a ritualistic executioner's weapon. The Ikakalaka shares a similar crescent tip to the blade to its smaller cousin, the Konda. Its purposes are somewhat similar but the Ikakalaka can be used to manipulate an opponent's position just as easily as it can be used to bypass a worn shield. This variant is massive when compared to other greatswords and can be difficult to wield.
