The twin water blades1, 2, 3, 4, 5, also called water blades1, were a pair of bladed weapons used by Tarix. These weapons originally had water elemental power during the Core War, but it was depleted long before 1 AR.6 A Thornax launcher was attached to the handle of one of them. Like most Glatorian weapons, they had a core of bone or claw.7, 8
These weapons were most likely found in ruins near Tajun.9 Tarix won more than a thousand matches with these weapons.4, 5 Mata Nui used the Mask of Life to revert Tarix's well-worn water blades to pristine condition. According to him, this was possible because they contained once-living bone or claw.7, 8, note 1 At the same time, Mata Nui also gave Tarix the elemental power of water. Mata Nui let Tarix think that he was just restoring the weapons' original power, but in reality, he gave Tarix himself the elemental power, and the weapons were just the focus.10
Notes
- They were always called by the same name, even when they had no elemental power.11
