New Moon

New Moon (ニュームーン) is a Claymore that can be wielded by Saïx in Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days. It is Saïx's basic weapon, and therefore requires no Gear to be attached to him in order to wield it. In appearance, New Moon is almost entirely grey, symbolizing that it is the most basic of all of Saïx's weapons through the use of achromatic colors. New Moon's combo finisher is Saïx jumping higher than usual and coming down in an aerial strike with New Moon.

Design
The New Moon has a short, light grey handle with a black spike set in its pommel. It has a large, two-pronged blade. The base of the blade sports a short spike on either of its sides. The tip of each prong is flat and slats inward. The entirety of the blade is light grey and has grey edges.

When Saïx enters his berserk state, the entire blade gains a thick, white additional blade around it. This new blade has thin, light blue edges.

A "new moon" is a lunar phase where the moon is hardly visible in the sky due to no sunlight reflecting of the side that faces the Earth.
