Default Seeking Kromm Post: Orcish Sawtooth +1 injury/-1 reactions, +0 CF

I'm seeking a link to a Kromm post in regard to orcish sawtooth weapons being +1 to injury and -1 to reactions in town for +0 CF. I'm aware of the canonical Orcish Sawtooth Blades from Treasures 1: Glittering Prizes, p. 20.

The forum software won't let me search for "-1 to reactions in town" with or without quotes (which don't seem to matter) and he didn't use "sawtooth" in the quote. It was written before Treasures 1.

I posted in that thread, quoting him IIRC.

Got a game today and I can't get bogged down continuously searching for it.

Thanks!

This is for Dungeon Fantasy and the thread is titled as such, IIRC.

Orcish weapons (Kromm PM): I think it would be cooler to say orcish weapons don't get bonus damage, but if they penetrate DR, all the teeth and serrations give +1 HP of final injury. I'd allow that to balance -1 to reactions for a net 0 CF.

I'd give -1 to all rolls to try to get into a village despite your Social Stigma as well, and +1 to Intimidation and Interrogation if the weapon is used prominently in the attempt.

Unfortunately, these energies cause the user to be perceived as dangerous: -2 to reaction rolls and Influence skill rolls if the weapon is ever wielded in combat. This effect dissipates in 3d days if the weapon is separated from the user.

I would love to hear all about this modifier.

Orcish: +1 follow-up damage for -2 to reaction rolls and Influence skill rolls if the weapon is ever wielded in combat. This effect dissipates in 3d days if the weapon is separated from the user: +0 CF?
