-'''Crystal swords''' are weapons in [[dNethack]] that are similar to long swords and train the associated skill, but possess double the base damage. They are much heavier and cost more as well. Being crystal, they are made of [[glass]] and will break if thrown, dropped while levitating, kicked, etc..
