Edged and Bladed Small Arms

This group collects the Small Arms And Sidearms subcategory's edged and bladed weapons and their fittings: combat and fighting knives, a bayonet doubling as a multi-purpose knife, a tactical folding knife, and a thrown or thrusting spear such as the Indonesian bambu runcing improvised during the national revolution. These are hand-to-hand and close-combat weapons rather than firearms, kept within the Small Arms And Sidearms subcategory as the small, personal-scale weapons an individual combatant carries alongside a firearm, distinct from the atlas's separate Edged And Melee Weapons subcategory, which covers weapons carried as a soldier's primary arm; moving these members across subcategories is outside this grouping pass's own scope and is named as a finding for a future relabel lane instead.
