Trivia[]

Scindo is a Latin verb, meaning to separate, divide, rend, or slice.
Described as an executioner's weapon, being held as a great honor to be beheaded by, it could have been initially made as an ornamental weapon, reserved for the most worthy of adversaries.
The Scindo Prime's gold parts can be recolored as of Update 15.13 (2015-02-05).
