Battle Axe
The Battle Axe is a weapon which is designed to dominate melee encounters. While its sheer power comes at the cost of reduced movement speed, skilled players can leverage its strengths to great effect in both offensive and defensive scenarios.
Katana
The Katana is a well balanced melee used by players of all skill levels, it has a solid M1 damage[citation needed, who said that?] and has a unique ability to deflect bullets back at opponents, making it a common choice for countering high-DPS weapons.
