Plasma Cutter
Really the only free weapon in this game, and the first one you obtain. Is about mid range on the practicality scale and can be used to some quite devastating results if mastered. It's mainly a short to mid rage weapon, and can be used to get out of some tight spots. Ammo is somewhat plentiful throughout the game, and if you don't feel like buying other weapons, it's a must use.
Primary Fire - Fires a single plasma cutter round out that has little to no trouble cutting through flesh and bone. If aimed right, it can take down an enemy in 2 to 3 shots. Use it to your advantage.
Alt Fire - Changes the fire blade from vertical to horizontal. Not damage effecting at all, just helpful to the primary fire.
