Choppas are a general term given to any Ork close combat weapon, typically heavy swords, short swords, daggers and axes. Slugga Boyz are always armed with a Slugga and Choppa, at least until they save up enough teef to buy something better, like a Shoota. There is little finesse to a Choppa, as most are little more than sharpened pieces of scrap metal which have been roughly shaped into something resembling a sword or axe. There are, however, more advanced Choppas, often taking the form of a crude Chainsword.
