They have the flexibility and [[VariableLengthChain long reach]] of a whip and the cutting power of a sword, meaning that all sorts of fancy tricks can be done with them while cutting people to pieces. Most fictional examples are made from separate sword segments threaded trough with the whip, wich [[VariableLengthChain can expand and contract]] on command, usually with the press of a button on the sword handle (trough this is rarely shown). Some can even separate the segments completly completely and attack with them, and then have them return and form the sword again. How they do this is almost never explained, not even with [[AWizardDidIt "magic"]].
