Rave Ripper

The Rave Ripper is Rikka Sashinami's melee weapon in Hazard ReBurst.

Design
The Rave Knuckle Type S is a pair of armored gauntlets that feature a clear window made of crystallized Rave Energy protecting the knuckles, large armor chunks behind said window, and a circular container on the underarm portions holding the saws in place. The Rave Knuckle Type S can either generate crystalline spikes from the Rave Energy window for enhancing punches or launch circular saws coated in crystalline Rave Energy rotating at 17,000 rpm. The saws themselves have two options: remaining tethered via a gravity tether, or launched as a projectile. When kept tethered, the bladed edge of the saw remains 8 inches from the user's clenched fist. Rikka's Rave Ripper enhances the saw's rpm to 20,000, in addition to producing magenta Rave Energy and the addition of the Nebula Oscillation logo emblazoned on the saw container.

Capabilities
The Rave Ripper is a multi-range weapon, complimenting its user's high-speed hit and run combat style. Its spiked knuckles allow Rikka to rapidly punch and impale enemies. Its saws can deployed in an instant via a button push, defaulting to the tethered position and rapidly sawing away at the enemy's armor with Rave Energy blades. It can launch the blade with another button press, or the saw can be retracted with a different button.

Trivia

 * It's loosely based on the Valvrave IV's Spindle Knuckles from the anime Valvrave the Liberator.
