| Blade on a Rope | comment |
One of the more interesting weapons seen in media is a rope, chain, string, or wire with a bladed weapon attached to it. This blade is usually a knife although other types such as hooks, claws, darts, and sickles are also common. These types of weapons are incredibly difficult to master in real life so a character wielding such a weapon is bound to be very skilled with it in order to be a threat. They also tend to look damn cool. The weapon can sometimes invoke the image of a striking snake or a scorpion's stinger, hence why it's of common use among villains and antiheroes. In video games, such a weapon is often used either to close the distance from an opponent (by pulling yourself to them or pulling them closer to you) or as a movement/traversal option like a grappling hook. Compare Epic Flail, where a heavy object is attached to a rope or chain. Not to be confused with Whip Sword or Razor Floss. A kusarigama is likely to be included in Stock Ninja Weaponry. Very often this trope overlaps with Variable-Length Chain. |

Bleach: In it's Shikai form, Hisagi's Zanpakuto takes the form of two double-bladed scythes connected by a long chain. In Bankai form, Ikkaku's Zanpakuto becomes a monk's spade and a guandao which are connected to a center section which is shaped like an axe blade. The Bount Yoshi wields a weapon called Nieder which consists of a jian sword and a Combat Hand Fan connected by a chain. In Shikai form, Ichigo's Zanpakuto is wrapped by bandages, and when he grasps it before battle, the bandages unravel from all of it save the hilt. During a Battle in the Center of the Mind against his Hollow self, the Hollow begins swinging it by the bandages and throwing it as a ranged weapon. Ichigo is surprised as this is something he never thought of doing before then. |

Usagi Yojimbo: In one story, Usagi, Tomoe and another samurai are confronted by a trio of dangerous Neko Ninja. Each ninja uses a set of three Wolverine Claws on a robe which can apparently be swung with enough force to leave their mark on stone. The claws can also be worn on the back of the hand while the rope is used to entangle the victim. | |

Naruto: Hidan's triple-bladed scythe is attached to a long metal cable, wound around two spools on his hip. This allows him to use it is as both a short and long-ranged weapon. Several characters have used a kusarigama in the manga and anime. Tenten used one in her fight against Temari during the Chūnin Exams. The anime-exclusive character Jiga used one in conjunction with Magnetism Manipulation to steal weapons from the opponent. In an anime filler, Gaara shows some competence with the roped dart and teaches his personal pupil on how to wield it in combat. |

RWBY: Blake Belladonna's weapon, Gambol Shroud, is a blade attached to a ribbon that she can swing and throw to attack from long range or grapple through the environment. Befitting the series it originates from, it can also transform into a gun. Emerald Sustrai's weapons, Thief's Respite, are a pair of sickle-bladed Kusarigama on chains that also have short-ranged melee and pistol modes. Sienna Kahn's Cerberus Whip is a long chain with dagger-like blades on the end. The blades are detachable and can channel elemental Dust for long-range elemental attacks. Clover Ebi's Kingfisher is a weapon resembling a fishing pole; it is a bladed hook on a long cord and rod that Clover uses to grapple enemies and his environment. Ivori's whip is a brown whip tipped on either end with ice dust blades. Downplayed with Roman Torchwick's cane Melodic Cudgel. While primarily a short-range melee weapon, it can fire a hook on a cable; while not particularly sharp, he can use it to snare enemies or attack from a distance. Penny Polendina fights with eight swords connected to wire cables deployed from her backpack. |

Wonder Woman: The New 52: Futures End: The cover of Wonder Woman: Future's End shows Diana swinging her lasso with a knife attached to it. However, the story itself never shows her using the lasso like this. Wonder Woman (Rebirth): Issue #60 (Part 3 of the "Just War" arc) has Diana binding her sword to her lasso. Unlike most examples, Diana doesn't use this weapon in a lethal manner, instead then swinging it around to knock some soldiers' guns out of their hands. Nubia's weapon in DC Infinite Frontier is the staff understanding...which she can will to transform into a bladed lasso. |

The upgraded form, Rengoku, takes the form of a single massive scythe-like sword on a chain with a handle, so that Black Star can also use it in melee like a sword when he's not swinging it around like a flail. | |

Dungeons & Dragons: 3rd Edition had the Scythe Flail, which was a two-handed flail that had a large sickle-shaped blade attached to the chain instead of the normal heavy flail head. It somehow gave a bonus to hit on Cleave attempts (never mind trying to figure out how that would work), but as it was an exotic weapon it was not considered worth using. The same game also has Kusarigama, treated as a double weapon able to hit with the sickle and the weight in a single attack. | |

Mortal Kombat: Scorpion's signature weapon is his "spear", a kunai attached to either a rope or chain which he uses to drag the opponent towards him while yelling "Get over here!". Sometimes he can enhance it with Hellfire for more damage. Human Smoke can use Scorpion's Spear in Mortal Kombat II and Mortal Kombat 3 mostly due to being a palette swap in those games.. Zombie Liu Kang wears chains with hooks attached to them. However, they can't be used in gameplay and he only (yet memorably) uses them as weapons in the cinematic opening of Mortal Kombat: Armageddon on Shang Tsung, the person who killed him. |

Mobile Suit Gundam SEED: The GuAIZ's Extensional Arrestors are waist-mounted rocket anchors with beam spikes that connect to the mobile suit with wires to reel in a grappled enemy. The beam spikes are actually the shots of very short-ranged beam guns.

MonsterVerse: Kong: Skull Island: During the climax, Kong gets tangled up in the anchor chains of a Derelict Graveyard, and as he's pulling himself free, he notices one of the chains is wrapped around a ship's propeller blades. Seizing the opportunity, he yanks the propeller free, utilizing it as a makeshift bladed flail, which quickly turns the tide of the battle against the alpha Skullcrawler. Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire: The film's Big Bad, Skar King, uses a very long vertebral column with a giant crystal shard at the end as his primary weapon. |

God of War: The Blades of Chaos are permanently linked to Kratos' arms by magic chains, a symbol of his servitude to Ares. The chains enable Kratos to strike at enemies from a distance and deliver slashes that cover a wide range, by throwing the weapons and performing fluid motions with his arms. The Blades of Chaos are later replaced by the Blades of Athena and the Blades of Exile, which are granted to him by the goddess of wisdom and function in the exact same manner. The Blades of Chaos return in God of War (PS4). After going without them for most of the game, Kratos eventually decides he needs them again to complete his new goal, revealing he had them locked away in the house. |

Lady Death: In "Goddess Returns", Brock gives Lady Death a Morph Weapon called the Scynister which has three forms - a short sword, a sickle and a kusarigama-like weapon whose chain can mystically shorten or lengthen according to Lady Death's desires. During the arc in which she had lost her powers and memories, the Avatar Press version of the character fought with a chain weapon that had a pendulum blade on the end. She stopped using it after her memories and powers returned. The end of "Extinction Express" introduces Chaotica Lady Death's daughter who fights with a weapon resembling a kusarigama. Hers has a pommel on the other end. |

Darkest Dungeon: The Bounty Hunter has a grappling hook which he swings around in his hand when idle during combat. He can use it to pull an enemy in the backlines closer to the front, and mark them for the next turn, both of which set the enemy up nicely for his Collect Bounty attack (which both deals extra damage to marked foes and only strikes the first few enemy positions). As a nod to Mortal Kombat, the name of the skill using the hook is "Come Hither." | |

Kengan Ashura has a skilled martial artist using a dao saber with a tassel long enough he can use it to spin the entire weapon, giving him an abnormal range. Two more examples appear in Omega, with one of the users even boasting about his skill spinning the sword with such mastery it doesn't make any sound. | |

Assassin's Creed III: This installment introduces Conner's rope spear, a vicious little gadget he can use to yank unsuspecting opponents towards him. Even nastier is that, while up in a tree, he can use the rope spear to yank a victim up into the tree, effectively removing them as a combatant. Note that it will not work on the larger heshian soldiers. | |

Yu-Gi-Oh!: The artwork for Kunai with Chain depicts a razor-sharp boomerang attached to a metallic chain. The card can either grant a power boost to your monster or stop your opponent's monster from attacking. Or both. The Red-Eyes Fang with Chain card depicts a stylized, dragon-shaped shuriken attached to a metallic chain. Its effect enables the player's monster to either attack twice in the same turn, symbolizing the blade's long reach and destructive power; or "steal" one of the opponent's monsters, referencing how its anime counterpart was often used to immobilize the target. The artwork for "The Six Samurai - Yariza" depicts the Warrior monster holding a spear attached to its armor by a cable. |

Kong: Skull Island: During the climax, Kong gets tangled up in the anchor chains of a Derelict Graveyard, and as he's pulling himself free, he notices one of the chains is wrapped around a ship's propeller blades. Seizing the opportunity, he yanks the propeller free, utilizing it as a makeshift bladed flail, which quickly turns the tide of the battle against the alpha Skullcrawler. | |
