According to the Rise of the Runelords Player's Guide (original, not 20th Anniversary Edition), a bladed scarf is a reach weapon. That's why I was wondering what was the point of the Elasticity magus arcana in Varisia: Birthplace of Legends.
Is there a more recent version of bladed scarf that makes it not a reach weapon? If so, what's the sourcebook? I wanted to make a flashy NPC with a reach scarf, but if the only way to do that is the magus archetype, let me know.

Thanks everyone for the posts; that gives me plenty to work with, and material to look for. I love the SAMCRO reference (meaning Sons of Anarchy Motorcycle Club Redwood Original). Great, but tragic series.
I love this AP so far; it gives you a lot of material to work with, and keeps it fairly open for the players to make their own decisions.
