That's it. I'm sick of all this "Masterwork Daemon weapon" bullshit that's going on in the 30k system right now. The blade of the Laer deserve much better than that. Much, much better than that.
I should know what I'm talking about. I myself commissioned a genuine daemonic sword on Laer for 2,400,000 psyker souls (that's about $3.50) and have been practicing with it for almost 2 years now. I can even cut slabs of iron hands with my blade of the Laer.

Warp smiths spend years working on a single daemon weapon and fold it up to a million times to produce the finest blades known to mankind.

Daemon blades are thrice as sharp as European swords and thrice as hard for that matter too. Anything a longsword can cut through, a daemon blade can cut through better. I'm pretty sure the blade of the Laer could easily decapitate a primarch wearing full artificer armor with a simple vertical slash.

Ever wonder why medieval Europe never bothered conquering the warp? That's right, they were too scared to fight the disciplined chaos marines and their daemon blades of destruction. Even in World War II, American soldiers targeted the men with the big pauldrons first because their killing power was feared and respected.

So what am I saying? The blade of the Laer is simply the best sword that the world has ever seen, and thus, require better stats in the 30k system. Here is the stat block I propose for the blade of Laer:

(One-Handed specialist Weapon)
Strength x2
murderous stike 2+
+2 to penetrating hits
Counts as Masterwork

tl;dr = The blade of Laer needs to do more damage in 30k, see my new stat block.
