Byeshk weapons of any type are able to bypass the damage reduction of daelkyr, which are resistant to all other weapons. The market price modifier of a byeshk weapon is +1,500 gp. Byeshk is very difficult to work into armor, and offers no significant advantage over iron armor.

Byeshk has a hardness of 17 and 35 hit points per inch of thickness. An item made of byeshk weighs 50% more than the same item made of iron. Byeshk is difficult to work, increasing the DC of Craft checks to create or repair an item made from it (see "Skills" in Chapter 3: Heroic Characteristics).

Now this is awesome, I value special material weapons far more than magical ones as a DM! Awesome, have we heard odf any other new materials from Eberron yet?

And don't forget that a bludgeoning weapon whose head is made of byeshk has a +1 enhancement bonus on damage rolls.
