Chainsaw



The chainsaw mutilates enemies close enough to contact. At 525 hits per minute, it is roughly a quadruple-speed fist.

In original Doom, if a player has a chainsaw, they cannot switch back to fists unless they have a berserk pack.

The chainsaw can be obtained via the cheat code idchoppers (and, in some source ports, idfa or idkfa).
