Turai's Sword

I was pondering whether or not to buy the Bonus Mission Pack, and when browsing through the weapons available I saw the Turai's Sword.

I like it and think it would look really good with my tormented shield, but what I can't get from the wiki, is it that is the weapon only wieldable during mission Battle of Jahai? Or once acquire is it mine permenantly to use outside the BMP? I ask this because I never saw anyone with one in the game, so could someone with the BMP enlighten me on this?

Thanks.

you can use it any time you want,you get given the weps b4 you enter the mission then you can use it anywhere you like

The sword is nice, though i wish they'd fix the swing wind anim bug

Okay thanks for the replies

I used mine for my heros...cheaper than kitting them out.

The question is do you want to spend however much it is for one sword.
