Item Clarification: Lungchuan Tamo

[Alphavoltario]

So the way this is written is a little off to me:

Lungchuan Tamo:

What seems to be an ordinary baton sheaths a pair of matching slender-bladed daggers—perfectly balanced throwing blades.

This is not a double weapon, but calls out there being two blades per baton... so a few questions on this:

#1.) Can you only make one attack with this or two? (For purposes of TWF)?

#2.) If you enchant it, does it enchant as a normal weapon? Or as a double (since, again, wording calls it out as two blades, but it's not a double weapon)?

[Meirril]

The only property the weapon has is Monk, and it can be throw with a range of 10'. The description says 2, but the printed stats are for one. Looking at a picture of the weapon, it is a baton that had a dagger hidden in the top and bottom. So when you draw both daggers the sheath is the stick in the middle.

To properly simulate this weapon you buy 2 of the Lungchuan Tamo listed in the description and understand the sheath is a stick that hides both of them. You don't get a bonus to hide the weapons, since the complete form of this hidden weapon still looks like a baton.

So if you purchase 2 of them:

1) you have 2 weapons that share a sheath. So yes TWF is appropriate.

2) You have 2 separate weapons. This isn't even a double weapon, its literally 2 weapons sharing a sheath.

Weird that the only pictures I got looked like this.

RAW for the most part this is just a singular dagger with a fancy sheath, that a monk can flurry with? It just feels like it missed its mark with the given description with the 'pair of daggers' thing and not even a Perception DC like the sword cane got.

Might have to skip on this unless I'm making some multiclassed TWF UC Rouge, UC Monk.

[Meirril]

Oh. I see, that makes more sense. There is no sheath. I found another site that gives details on the item. But basically, its 2 weapons that come as a pair. Not a double weapon.

[Alphavoltario]

Buy it twice; understood. Just feels like a wasted opportunity though.

Talk to your GM, honestly a lot of the more eastern weapons ended up mechanical oddities that don't seem to work the way the should.
