He's been trained in swordsmanship by his grandfather who fled long before Reach was dicovered by the Covenant. He was later conscripted into the SPARTAN-III program. Immediatly he showed exceptional leadership skills, later becpming the leader of Changdao Team. He forged his own blade with the assisance of Chen's engineering expertise. It was creted from a ferric tugsten, and a carbon titanium coat, all from scrap metal. This combination of metals gave it a razor-sharp but leight-weight sword
