I think it's called a "Fletcher"

Hmmm... good point. That made a few ideas pop up in my head. One penalty would be having it be really low damage. Another could be making it so you have to hold X with no interruptions for 1 or so seconds. This could simulate the stringing/ unstringing of a bow so it would not be damaged. I think that and a lower amount of damage would make it so it's still a good thing to have, but it's not as good as or better than an actual melee weapon. Comments?
