Tri-Point Double-Edged Sword: Is it a Monk weapon?

[Arassuil]

I was looking through the expanded list of weapons in Ultimate Combat for the Fighter's weapon training ability, when I noticed something:

Fighter Weapon Training wrote:

Monk: bo staff, brass knuckles, butterfly sword, cestus, dan bong, double chained kama, double chicken saber, emei piercer, fighting fan, hanbo, jutte, kama, kusarigama, kyoketsu shoge, lungshuan tamo, monk's spade, nine-ring broadsword, nine-section whip, nunchaku, quarterstaff, rope dart, sai, sansetsukon, seven-branched sword, shang gou, shuriken, siangham, temple sword, tiger fork, tonfa, tri-point double-edged sword, unarmed strike, urumi, and wushu dart.

However, looking at the weapons table in Ultimate Combat:

Two-Handed Martial Weapons in Ultimate Combat wrote:

Sword, tri-point double-edged, 12 gp, 1d8 (S), 1d10 (M), ×3, 14 lbs., P, Reach

The fighter's weapon training seems to imply that it should have the Monk weapon property. So either the fighter's weapon training is listed incorrectly, or the weapon table is missing information.

If it is a monk weapon, it's certainly something I'd love to pick up for my PFS Barbarian/Monk. It'd be nice to get an official clarification on it (for people like me who play PFS), but it's probably a very low priority item.

Urumi is the same way it's not flurriable.

Well, the unarmed strike is not a Monk weapon either.

It is just in the Fighter Weapon Group: Monk.

It does not mean that all must have the Monk quality, even if the name suggests so.

Now, if the tri-point double-edged sword was intended to be a Monk weapon, it was at one point, they decided not to include the quality.

So, for now, RAW is clear, but RAI is very much up in the air.

Being in the Fighter weapon group Monk, doesn't grant a weapon the monk property. They are two entirely different things regardless of the naming.

RAW? It's clearly not a monk weapon.

RAI? I have no idea.

One of the reasons I figured I'd bring it up was in the hopes it might be an error. In the end, doesn't matter all that much to me, really. Just thought it was odd.

The Urumi was in prior editions, now it's not. I also fail to see how a 2lb weapon that is light enough to be disguised as a belt is not finessable or flurryable anymore.

There are a lot of those actually.
