Actual Design of Explosive Dogslicer

[Lead by Example]

I am genuinely curious about the actual look of this weapon. Most people I've asked are split because of the description. "At first glance, it appears to be a triple-bladed dogslicer with an oversized guard." Does this mean the weapon has three separate blades like Wolverine's claws, is it more of a T-shaped blade going in three directions, or is it more like a tri dagger, the one with three edges twisted into a spiral?

Also what does an oversized guard mean? Like is the design a cross guard, a basket hilt, a knuckle bow? It's kind of hard to imagine considering the base dogslicer is a hunk of metal on a stick, no guard whatsoever. Is the hilt big enough for two handing it, or is it more like a zweihander with a second area for when they shoot?

And where do the bullets come out of? That one I guess is fully up to interpretation, but also depends on the actual design of the blades you know? Basically, to sum all this up, I'm wondering what everyone's design is for this weapon, and how it works, like, at all.

That is not a rare occurrence when goblin technology is involved.

There was an item card set for Guns and Gears, which is out only insight into what Air Repeaters look like. Maybe it has the combination weapons too?

Never read anything about it. Assumed it was just a dogslicer with the cutouts packed with explosives that blow up when you hit someone with it.

This was always my interpretation

I've always liked Wayne Reynolds's goblin guns

Girardoni air Rifle this was the real life inspiration for air repeaters
