Yep. That's what the rules say.
Cheers!

(Originally my quote) And just quickly, take a weapon which is both Impaling and Bladed.

You stab your target for say 4 points of damage, if you leave it there (and keep a hold of it) you get 4CP for active and referred control, but do you also then inflict 2 points of basic cutting damage as well?[/quote]

I might be missing something but all daggers and swords with points?

As noted, no. Pick an attack mode.
Cool, cheers.

No hit location penalty applies if you're attacking an area already grappled.
Cool cheers, this fits nicely into sentry removal (and is the effect I was going for with Impaling and bladed working together at the same time).
