Are you describing spikey?
Actually, that makes a really impresive looking guy. He needs intimidation bonuses for the look alone.

How would that work?whatisitgoodfor said:TWF with a great sword and armor spikes is pretty good too.
Huzzah! That's why I picked them in the first place, and then did this analysis. I play a paladin, and wanted to add something grim to my look, not that do-goody, smiley, wholesome attitude.Victim said:Armor spikes might have a kind of negative connotation in many campaign worlds. "Look at that evil guy in the wicked spiked armor. Heh, the black paint must have got worn off."

horizontal cut(or a diagonal one) followed by any of the following; spiked shoulder plate rammed into the opponent's face or chest, knee spike jammed into the abdomine or groin, the elbow spike planted into his gut, Helmet spike lowered and rammed into him, or spiked boots used to....... KICK HIM IN THE JUNK AND TAKE HIS WALLET
Armor Spikes: Spikes can be added to armor. They deal 1d6
points of piercing damage (X2 crit) with a successful grapple
attack. The spikes count as a martial weapon. If a character is
not proficient with them, the character suffers a -4 penalty on
grapple checks when trying to use them. A regular melee attack
(or off-hand attack) can be made with the spikes, and they count
as a light weapon in this case.
...
Light: If the weapon's size category is smaller than the
character's, then the weapon is light for that character. Light
weapons are easier to use in the off hand, and they can be used
while grappling. A light weapon can be used in one hand. There is
no special bonus when using such a weapon in two hands.
