These weapons are long staves with a spear-like end that is similar in color to the "fins" of their wielders. Not much is known about these exotic weapons, except that they have a length of 427.5 centimeters, or about 14 feet. They do not seem to have much of a combat purpose but more a ceremonial one, as the Honor Guard will use [[Plasma Rifles]] and [[Energy Swords]] in real combat. However, they were used by Brutes to subdue/knock out any [[Grunt]]s and [[Jackal]]s that came too close to the [[Council Chamber]] during one of the [[High Prophet of Truth]]'s sermons regarding the discovery of the [[Sacred Icon|Index]]. This weapon is never used in Gameplay by other characters.

They can be seen in the hands of the [[Brute Honor Guard]] during both the opening and closing cinematics of the ''[[Halo 2]]'' level ''[[Gravemind (Level)|Gravemind]]'', but they are tossed aside, as the [[Brutes]] prefer their own weapons.
