| "Though not the general idea, I could imagine a blade made with a crystaline structure such that any damage would actually expose more "fractals" that are just as sharp as before. that is one of the selling points of depleted uranium over tungsten for armor-penetrating rounds; that it has more of a self-sharpening effect."
