Your Trademark Moves

We got a couple here, but Id love to see more...

Got a Dwarf Knight with a sig axe-with-pick-and-full-spear-head, fine, balanced, dwarven (of course) and a weapon bond that tops him out at effective skill 26, used two handed. He needs suggestions on what to do with roughly -10 to -12 of self-imposed penalties.

Can you use an "attack" to pull a pick out of a target? Or is it always going to require a full Ready to pull out? Wonder if I can talk a GM into ATR 1 (Only to pull out picks, ready unbalanced weapons, change grips and the like -80%) [20]...

What I have so far:

"The Trepanator": Feint to the groin, lop off the top of the head: Rapid Strike, first attack is Feint at skill 23, second is Axe to Skull at Skill 16 for 2d+9 cut, damage past helmet and skull DR is x4.
"The Violator": This move will help keep opponents from building up a +1 to defend against the Trepanator... Foil the opponents stance with the spear head, then throw a vicious pick attack to the groin/torso vitals: Rapid Strike, first attack is a Defensive Feint at skill 23, second is an Attack with the pick to the groin at skill 16 with a -2 to defend against it (Skill 26-3 Rapid -3 groin/vitals -4 Deceptive) for 2d+8 imp damage, x2 penetrating damage if literally done to the groin, x3 if done to the torso vitals with a special effect being your going for the liver by way of the taint...
"The Minionator": Rapid Strike with the axe head _x4_, each attack is made at skill 15 and is -1 to defend against (Skill 26 - 18/2 for x4 rapid strike -2 Deceptive) OR _x7_ and costs 7 FP (Skill 26 - 36/2 (WM)*2 (Flurry) -2 Deceptive)= Skill 15 and -1 to be defended against.
"Quattuor Membra": As Minionator, but instead of a deceptive attack, target each arm and leg in turn. At 2d+9 cutting, and penetrating damage getting x1.5, shouldnt be to hard to get a few crippled limbs (Against mail armor, average is 12 penetrating, multiplied to 18 for cut, which will lop off limbs from up to ST/HP 17 foes).

I like Bruno's Leg-Docker, going to add that. DF has been out a while, what else do people have?
