How do you gain access to the Sawtooth Sabre?

without GM discretion

Currently the only way is the Human Ancestry Feat that grants you access to an uncommon weapon of your choice. Though since it's exotic you'll need to spend a general feat to get proficiency since that human feat doesn't automatically give Training. Or be a Fighter, though then you'll probably want Exotic Weapon Training.

Other ancestries could get this too but at more cost, they need the Adoptive Ancestry General Feat and THEN they can take the Human feat.

Sawtooth sabres don't have an ancestry trait, so I believe it's not a valid choice for Unconventional Weaponry.

Oh, my bad. Forgot about the ancestry bit.

Yeah, looks like it's just GM discretion then, like the uncommon spells and magic items.

Though judging by a piece of artwork in the book I feel like Red Mantis Assassin may make it into the final book as a prestige. Maybe it was added in anticipation of that giving you access?

I think they were mostly added to show off the Twin ability, but yeah there's currently no guaranteed way to get Access. Which is a shame, since the Twin ability is cool.
