Overview[edit]
A Monowire is a vibro-enhanced garrote and an assassin's weapon of choice. Like a Vibroblade it uses high-frequency vibrations to slice through the target with ease. It consists of a high-tensile strength wire strung between two handgrips which contain the vibration mechanism and power pack. It is not a normal combat weapon, though, and should be used against an opponent who is unconscious or unaware.[1]
