Sheathing Attack [Fighter]
With a flick of the wrist you slightly unsheath your sword just to put it inside again. The blood spraying from your enemy's chest showed that you successfully hit.Prerequisites: BAB +3 or Sleight of Hand 6 ranks, Weapon Focus (katana or wakizashi)Benefit: If you choose to fight armed only with one weapon, as a standard action you may sheath your katana or wakizashi, slightly extract it from the scabbard and put it back immediately. You perform a melee attack against a target within 20 feet (6 meters) + your reach, if any. You may perform this maneuver even if your sword is already in your scabbard. This attack provokes attacks of opportunity and you must have line of sight and line of effect to do it. As you sheath the sword again at the end, you can't draw it until your next turn, unless you have the Quick Draw feat or at least 6 ranks in Sleight of Hand.
Special: A fighter may choose this feat as one of its bonus feats. Your target isn't flat-footed against your attack (unless it is for other reasons), as the action is threatening enough, except when you do it in the first round of combat.
