The Saxophone is a brass musical instrument that can be swung as a one-handed club. It trains the Long Blunt skill. Its standout trait is the crit chance: 70 percent of its hits can crit, though a crit only doubles the damage.
The Saxophone is heavy for a one-handed weapon at a weight of 3, and it breaks very quickly. It suits a desperate moment more than a planned fight. It is mostly found in closets, and now and then in bedrooms, attics, pawnshop storage and garage storage. The Construction Worker is the best occupation for long blunt. It starts with the most Long Blunt skill.
Combat
The Saxophone swings a little slower than normal and reaches about 1.2 tiles. Each hit deals between 0.4 and 0.8 damage. With crits landing so often, many hits deal close to double that.
The weight makes each swing cost more endurance than a typical one-handed club. The other hand stays free for a flashlight or a bag. The Long Blunt skill raises damage and attack speed with each level, and it lowers wear.
The Saxophone has only 5 condition, and each hit has a 1 in 2 chance of taking a point off. It rarely lasts beyond one short fight. It works as a stopgap when a closet turns one up and nothing better is at hand.
Repair
The Saxophone has 5 condition, and each hit has a 1 in 2 chance of taking a point off. The Long Blunt and Maintenance skills lower that chance. Duct Tape and Adhesive Tape repair it with no skill needed. 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 Saxophone is an uncommon find. Closets give by far the best odds. Bedroom boxes and crates and pawnshop storage hold one now and then. Attics, closet lockers, garage storage, halls, living room lockers and storage units hold one only rarely.

Notes
- The very high crit chance makes its damage more steady than the base figures suggest.
- A roll of Duct Tape keeps it going for a few more swings.
- Closets in ordinary homes are the place to look for one.
