    The title says it all in this case. I'm looking for novels where the MC uses something unusual as their main weapon. Pots, Pans, Flails, Food, Pens, Rocks if it isn't a proper combat weapon, let's see it.

    Definite Rules:
    - No Swords. Seriously, they're as common as dirt as a main weapon, despite the fact that very few swords were designed as main weapons of war and combat. They were typically more self-defense weapons than combat weapons.
    - No Guns. They're current-day weapons of war. Thus they don't fit, even if they're seen as "unusual" for the setting.
    - No Unarmed Combat Masters. From what I've seen, this is the second most commonplace Fantasy and Fantasy-Variant "weapon" after swords. So no.
    - No Spears, Staves, Bows, Crossbows, Hammers, Pole-arms, or Maces. Probably no Axes either. These are all (with the exception of Staves) tools that have had real-world Weapon Variants of them created. As such, they aren't applicable to his request. As for the Staff, which to my knowledge was never overly used directly in war, it's both the basis of the Pole-arm and relatively common MC Weapons when compared to some of the other options given in this mass "no" group.
    - No Magic/Spirit Energy/Chi/Other Mystical Energy as the MC's Main Weapon. Now, I'm not saying that the story can't have this criteria, nor that the MC can't use it with their main weapon. Just that it can't BE their main weapon. No summoning Skeleton or Golem Army's to fight for you, no combat of throwing fireballs while avoiding lightening bolts, no "Formless" Magic Weapon that is useless to anyone but the MC due to it's base form being a lump of metal and only turning into a weapon when the MC uses his Magic on it. While the last one could/can be interesting, too often the character's who do this turns their weapon into a basic Sword and alot of the potential of the weapon is wasted.
    - No Giant Robots that don't fit the above criteria.

    Battle Frenzy? MC uses whatever weapon is given to him. Though his favorite is the crosswheel.

    Everyone with a dick has a sword. Transforming weapons are all the rage.
    The King's Avatar: MC wields an umbrella that that can transform into every other weapon type.
    Emperoro's Domination: MC gets a stone that can copy objects and people.

    Was that the one where the handle of the sword was a dildo and she plunges it into the ground to ride it? 'so that's where the legend of excalibur came from' , i feel as though i'm confusing two different titles now. :hmm:

    edit: found the one i meant

    For your Dao, it might be suitable. :blobmelt:

    Hmm, unusual weapon? Does Pokémon battle still counts?
