The Saw.

The saw, a 20" diameter, negative rake, carbide tipped blade.
Team Sinister hasn't had a saw on a robot since The Master at RobotWars '96, It was my turn to carry the torch, the saw is family.
Spikes!

The other big addition to Ronin were the spikes on the side, what I refer to as the "Pin Cushion".


They were an afterthought but turned out to be a big hit and a good defence. I have to thank my brother Eric for doing all the cutting and welding.
