Additional equipment for the Knight's Arm:
-Shield: Just a normal shield taken from a Genoace mobile suit. On its own offers only average protection, but Sielje acquired it with intention of stacking defense - both it and the beasthide cloak used in unison. There's also a crest on it, one of sentimental value.
-Blast pike (prototype version): A mecha sized polearm, just a long sturdy rod. Instead of any kind of blade, it has a rocket propelled grenade that is primed to explode on impact. Basically a melee version of the Sturm Faust, it is hard to control when the rocket goes off but can deal large damage in the explosion. It's also not dishonorable because it is a melee weapon! For obvious reasons it's good for one use only.
EDIT: Above upgraded to
-Blast pike (mass production version): The pole itself and the head are disattachable. The explosive warhead at the end of the pike can be replaced and removed once it goes off, which means you don't need to replicate the whole pike after it serves its purpose, just carry more (slightly modified) grenades. The grenades/warheads are modified to have sockets of sorts to attach to the pole, one behind (a pike like configuration) and another on the side (a more swingy halberd like configuration).
Sielje can carry several warheads at a time, usually hidden behind the shield. Replacing a head requires some fiddling around with the pike, so it's hard to do with the enemy in your face.
This equipment can be dropped for extra mobility.
