"We don't exactly have monsters that are easily accessible and even then, there's both considerable peril if it causes no harm and ethical issues. I could test the edge on a digit. Just the barest touch, and we could see if that actually penetrates or causes something." Baby steps. this kind of experimentation required baby steps.

"I want you to hold it steady. I believe it needs to be wielded. that much is clear. We can test just a thumb at the edge to see if there's impact there," she said, concentrating a little. "One step at a time, to see what this thing actually does and cuts, or if it's a glorified showpiece."
