The Antique Table Leg with Nails is a crafted two-handed weapon made by driving nails through an Antique Table Leg. It trains the Long Blunt skill. The nails raise the damage well above the plain leg, and a crit deals five times the damage.
It keeps the same weight, the same swing speed and the same short reach as the plain leg. That makes the nails a cheap and clear upgrade. The weapon is made with a hammer and five Nails at Carpentry 1. It is also a very rare find in mid game survivor safehouses.
Combat
The nailed leg swings at base speed and reaches only 1 tile. Each hit deals between 0.7 and 1.3 damage, a solid step up from the plain leg. The crit chance starts at 10 percent, and a crit multiplies the damage by five, so a crit often kills outright.
Both hands stay on the leg while it is equipped. The short reach lets a zombie get close before each swing lands, so a group is risky. The weapon suits a single zombie or a short fight in a narrow space.
The Long Blunt skill raises damage, crit chance and swing speed as it levels. Compared with the plain Antique Table Leg, the nails add damage and a much stronger crit for the cost of five Nails. The Antique Table Leg with Sawblade hits harder still and crits more often, but it needs Carpentry 5 and many more parts. A Baseball Bat with Nails is the stronger long blunt choice when one is at hand.

Repair
The nailed leg has 4 condition, and each hit has a 1 in 3 chance of taking a point off. The Long Blunt and Maintenance skills both lower that chance. Duct Tape, Adhesive Tape and Glue repair it with no skill. Wood Glue needs Carpentry 2. Zip Ties need Maintenance 1, Epoxy needs Maintenance 3, and Epoxy with Rags needs Maintenance 4. Every repair restores less condition than the one before it.
Locations
The Antique Table Leg with Nails is a very rare find. It turns up only in mid game survivor safehouses. There it can sit in cardboard boxes, crates, small boxes, metal shelves, counters or wardrobes, each with a tiny chance. Crafting one from a plain leg is far more reliable than looking for it.

- A crit deals five times the damage, against two times for the plain leg.
- Researching this weapon can teach the recipe for nail-spiked weapons and two forging recipes.
- The nailed leg can still be burned as fuel once it wears out.
