I saw Lexx but I'm damned if I can remember this weapon. Never mind, can't win them all.

its on a long retractable wire, he used it to kill or as a grapple...

Cmdr James has it..
LEXX 1997 to 2002 4 seasons
The crew consists of the captain of the Lexx, Stanley H. Tweedle; the love slave Zev/Xev Bellringer; the undead former assassin Kai, last of the Brunnen-G; and the love-crazed robot head 790.

The picture was Kai's weapon
