A weapon used during the proxy wars by specialized counter-terror units, the breaching sledge has once again bludgeoned its way into popularity amongst discerning martial-minded people. It has a sledgehammer head and a claw-tipped end at the base of its grip for prying things open. This modernized maul uses more advanced materials to reduce reverberation, improve durability, and perform its duties more effectively.
