Flintknapped blades are great, and scary sharp. I've done some Knapping. I still like steel much, much better though. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" />

Wiki...

Obsidian has been used in cardiac surgery, as well-crafted obsidian blades have a cutting edge many times sharper than high-quality steel surgical scalpels, with the edge of the blade being only about 3 nanometres wide. Even the sharpest metal knife has a jagged, irregular blade when viewed under a strong enough microscope. When examined under an electron microscope an obsidian blade is still smooth and even.

Bone makes a halfway decent blade in a pinch, but only in a pinch. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Crom, I have never prayed to you before. I have no tongue for it. No one, not even you, will remember if we were good men or bad. Why we fought, or why we died. All that matters is that two stood against many. That's what's important! Valor pleases you, Crom... so grant me one request. Grant me revenge! And if you do not listen, then to *hell* with you!

I *may* have seen the movie once...

Enjoy every sandwich.

For illustrative purposes, here's a pair of Boker ceramics.

The Boker factory box

Opened box, the white knife option

Blade etching

Side by side...


My brother's Boker, black option
[Linked Image from images46.fotki.com] [Linked Image from images21.fotki.com]

Damage from rough use. Someone whom my brother worked with dropped his knife and broke it without telling him... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" />
