Wrestling
Wrestling is the fallback weapon skill: bare hands, no weapon, no material cost. It is what trains when you fight unarmed, whether you meant to or not — which is usually how people discover they have any.
Wrestling needs nothing and costs nothing — it is simply what trains when your hands are empty. It also gains at double the rate of every other weapon skill and swings faster than any weapon, which makes it the quickest of them to master by a long way.
