Description A nasty, shankity dagger. Belongs to 's wizard Koreal -- it has a nasty tendency to turn the blood of its victims into iron filings. That's its name, Grim Razor, down the middle there, in my badly mangled attempt at Sindarin.

Iron filings? Well, it's certainly more feasible than molten lead. Plenty of iron in the hemoglobin..... I wonder, would each cell become a little grain of iron, or would it all just turn to regular filings and tear open the smaller blood vessels?

This is a beautiful dagger, although I originally thought this thing belonged to Mirth or something. Oops. Frankly, your engraving on there looks ten times better than my chickenscrath handwriting.

I'm not really sure what exactly it does to each cell, but regardless, transmuting your blood to iron filings generally will kill you...

I know! I'm just curious about the logistics of HOW it would do so. Does it all change at once, for example, or work its way through like a poison? Are there specifics of where it has to pierce? Does it kill when filings start to scratch at the brain, or when the body runs out of oxygen? So many questions, all about one little dagger. *is transfixed*

I'm afraid you'd have to ask the guy who designed it... I'd imagine the shock alone probably kills pretty quickly, to say nothing of the rupturing of hundreds of tiny blood vessels, many in your brain.

Thanks, I'll go talk to him. (Wow, this is easy! I like the internet) He won't be disturbed by a random girl asking how the grim razor works, will he?

Not specifically this, but I have told other people to ask the creator of various characters or items more detailed questions, because I don't always have the answer.

Ah, I see. You're right, he did not appear to be disturbed. Actually, I think it amused him.
