Klingon Mek'leth 1

Klingon Mek'leth

A mek'leth was a traditional Klingon bladed weapon. While Klingons often carried disruptors, they prefered to use bladed weapons in combat, with the two most common ones being the mek'leth and the bat'leth.

The mek'leth was described by T'Pol as "a two-pronged dagger" that was "typically used to slash the throat or disembowel." It could also be thrown effectively. When facing an opponent wielding a bat'leth, a skilled mek'leth user could use the reverse prong to snag the center of the bat'leth and snap it in half.
