Within the Show
Progressive Knife: Knife-type weapon that can stab and slice.
Sonic Glaive: Spear-like weapon. Used to cleave Israfel in half in Episode 09. Also appears in Episode 19, but never used. Presumably based on the same technology as a progressive knife, using sonic vibrations in the blade to increase its sharpness, but larger and with a wider reach.
Smash Hawk: Axe-like weapon, capable of being wielded with one or two hands. Eva-02 sortied with it in Episode 16, but never used in combat against an Angel. Also probably based on progressive knife technology, using sonic vibrations to increase the sharpness of the blade: it is not as long as the "Sonic Glaive" spear, but has a wider blade for more damage.
