👉 A derived weapon is a weapon that originates from an existing tool or object but is modified or adapted to serve a more specialized purpose, often with enhanced functionality or design. For example, a knife might be transformed into a hunting knife with a longer blade and serrated edge for slicing, or a baseball bat can be turned into a baseball bat weapon with reinforced wood and a protective helmet. These weapons leverage the familiarity and utility of their original form while providing unique advantages in combat or self-defense scenarios, making them effective extensions of the user's existing arsenal.
