CROSS_Blades is a mod that brings you four new weapons to the game. The three melee weapons are fully compatible with CROSS_Crits. The three swords each have their own unique customizations.

The BER2 (Laser Sword) is science-focused, the Katana is a combination of Science and Blacksmithing, and the Crucible is exclusively Blacksmithing.

Even though they deal heavy energy damage, they still fully scale with your current strength level (the shishkebab's energy damage doesn't do this, which is why it's kind of bad). Similarly, the Throwing knives scale with your explosives perk. Overall, each weapon starts out around the same power as a regular machete, and upgrades 3-4 times to beyond the Kremvh's Tooth's power.
