Trudgen's vibrocleaver was the Knight's personal weapon of choice.[1] It had a ultrasonic vibro-tech settings that increased the lethality such that even glancing blows could produce deadly lacerations. It was made of tempered steel impregnated with beskar or phrik filaments, making it incredibly strong. Though a lightsaber blade could cut through the weapon, it required a greater application of pressure to do so.[2] The vibrocleaver was used by Trudgen against Ben Solo in the Sith Citadel during the battle of Exegol.[2]
