Trivia
- The item's blurb is possibly based on the real-world quote "be careful when you fight the monsters, lest you become one," as uttered by Friedrich Nietzsche.
- The sword bears resemblance to the several basic iron swords from the Monster Hunter series of games. It looks like it was made from materials of Rathalos and Rathian, 2 Fire Wyverns of the series.
