Lore of the Unknown is a series of mods I've been making based on real-world historical weapons.  I have made six so far:

The Kpinga - A pre-colonial African combination thrown/melee weapon. They really have to be seen to be appreciated, the Azande people for whom they are best known believed God is a blacksmith. The Kpinga is a symbol as well as a weapon.

The Falx - When the Romans invaded Dacia, they met with resistance wielding this fearsome weapon. Expressly designed to fight Roman Legionnaires, the falx was so good at killing them, they had to modify their armor.

The Seax of Beagnoth - A massive seax, a weapon-tool similar to a machete, this particular specimen currently resides in a museum in England. To bring it to the Commonwealth, I wrote a story that some people liked. 

Chiljido, The Seven-Branched Sword - An ancient reproduction of an even more ancient weapon, the real Seven-Branched Sword is in a museum in Korea, but once again found its way to the Commonwealth, along with a modern version, the Seven-Branch Vibro-Sword. Included in that mod is the Stealth Man, an upgraded version of a Stealth Boy which makes you invisible and slows time. A very long story about the sword is on its mod page.

Zulfiqar - Given to Ali Ibn Abi Talib by the Prophet (PBUH) himself, Zulfiqar has had many reproductions and re-envisionings. My version takes a scimitar and adds the distinct bifurcation. Like Chiljido, I wrote a story for my now-defunct Patreon page, which I've also posted to the mod page.

Maximillian II of Bavaria's Sawfish Sword - You read that right, a sword made from a sawfish. A LARGE sawfish. This thing is massive.  It's a real thing, too, and apparently not the only one in existence. I had a story for the Sawfish Sword, but I never published it and now I can't find it on my computer.

Requires Nuka-World for the throwing animations (still no 3rd person throwing anims, sorry).


I added a crate to the "Special" settlement build menu that contains all of the weapons. The thrown Kpinga has 25 ammo, but it is also
craftable.  The Falx, Rhomphaia, and Stealth Man are also craftable.
