<onlyinclude>{{3.5e Feat
|name=Monk Weapon Focus
|types=Fighter
|summary=Monks now can apply their unarmed damage to a special monk weapon.
|prereqs=Monk 1st
|fluff="The fist is but a tool, one of many.  Through technique you can transform any tool into a deadly weapon, including more than just your fists.  Come, I will show you how to turn a riding crop, thus nunchaku, into a fearsome weapon..."
|benefit=You apply the same techniques which turn your normally feeble unarmed strike into a powerful slam which shatters bones, and apply it to another weapon of your choice.  Monks may choose a special monk weapon, and from that point on, they gain the weapon damage of their unarmed strike when using that weapon, or the weapon's original damage, whichever is higher.  For example, an 8th level monk deals 1d10 with a quarterstaff with Monk Weapon Focus-Quarterstaff.  Any special abilities that would be delivered through or modify an unarmed strikes may now be used with your chosen weapon (such as the Snap Kick<sup>ToB</sup> or [[SRD:Stunning Fist|Stunning Fist]] feats, but not things such as grappling).  The weapon must be a special monk weapon detailed in the [[monk]] class.
|normal=The monk does not gain his unarmed damage when using weapons.
|special=If the monk also possesses the Weapon Focus feat in their Monk Weapon Focus weapon of choice, the benefit gained is +2 instead of +1.  Greater Weapon Focus also grants +2 instead of another +1, for a total of +4 with both feats and Monk Weapon Focus.  This feat may be taken multiple times, each time, it applies to a different special monk weapon.
