This page lists the various item materials in SLASH'EM Extended. Some of them can rust, corrode, burn or rot, and certain materials are subject to specific erosion types only if the game is played in evilvariant mode.

Players can change the base material of an item by using a material kit, which will affect all instances of that base item. Example: using a glass material kit on a dagger means that from now on all "dagger" items will be made of glass (including ones that were generated before the kit was used), but e.g. "orcish dagger" or "elven dagger" will be unaffected since they're different base items.

Turning on the "materialglyph" option will show abbreviations for items' materials in inventory and also in some messages.
