Our Lies of P Weapons Guide will go over how weapons work in the game, along with where to find each normal and special weapon.
Lies of P Weapon Crafting and Upgrading
Normal weapons in Lies of P are made up of 2 parts, the handle and the blade. Handles determine stat scaling (which can be altered slightly using cranks), while blades determine damage and guard effectiveness.
Both parts give the finalised weapon a different Fable Art each (skills that make use of the blue segmented bar below stamina), and the finished combination determines attack patterns.
New normal weapon combinations can be crafted after progressing through the story, letting you mix and match different parts from the weapons you collect. There are no limits, with all normal weapon blades being combinable with handles.
Special weapons work slightly different, in that they're only made up of a singular part (though their stat scaling can still be altered using cranks).
To unlock special weapon crafting, you must find Alidoro in Area IV. He can be reached via the elevator all the way at the back of the Chapel's underground floor, via an elevator.
After he reaches Hotel Krat — you can lie to him and tell him the wrong directions, but he'll still make it to the hotel if you talk to him again in Area III — he'll make special weapons and amulets with the materials dropped by most bosses.
Note that you can only make one or the other in a single playthrough, meaning new game plus is required to get each special weapon and amulet.

Lies of P Special Weapons
All but one of the special weapons in Lies of P are obtained via Alidoro using materials dropped by bosses.
The exception to this is the Golden Lie. To obtain this weapon, you must first take the painting found in the Town Hall at the end of Area V. Taking this back to Gepetto, it'll then be hung on the wall.
As you gain more Humanity (by lying or completing quests), a nose will grow out from the painting. After reaching the final tier of Humanity (you'll get the message "Your heart is pounding" whenever Humanity increases at this point) and beating the final boss, you can return to the paining and claim the weapon.
