Hi, I'm new to SR and looking for stats for a thin blade concealed in a staff. My character is a bit of a pacifist, and I want the staff to be his foci. The staff would be slightly rectangular, all wood and probably around 1.5 metres in length. The sword would be around 1 metre long with a thin, straight blade and no hilt, because the hilt is part of the staff and blends in.

Can anybody provide me with stats? :)

Another question: If the staff is a foci or bonded weapon, will both parts of the staff (staff itself and the sword) count as foci if they are seperated?

Also, what would damage would jabbing someone with the tip of a sword scabbard do?
