Phantom Mod/Bronze Fingernails

The Bronze Fingernails are a Pre-Hardmode melee weapon. They are an upgrade to the Bladed Glove. If you don't have the Bladed Glove, then you can get it as a drop from the Ethereal Slime. They have a considerably high amount of DPS for pre-Hardmode, almost as much as the Falcon Blade without the Poisoned and Broken Armor debuffs.
