Kitari Thrusting Sword
itemShort thrusting sword carried in hip scabbard, paired with hasta razor; blunted handle used for striking, precise piercing blade
The Kitari Thrusting Sword first appears in Iron Gold as Darrow’s secondary sidearm, a compact, razor-edged blade designed for precise, lethal thrusts. Throughout the series it evolves from a simple battlefield tool into a symbol of Darrow’s tactical pragmatism—its blunted handle doubling as a blunt-force weapon and its narrow blade offering surgical penetration against armored foes. Its consistent presence underscores Darrow’s shift from frontline warlord to calculating statesman who values efficiency and adaptability over brute spectacle.
