Sorry for posts that are so close together, but I had an idea suddenly pop into my mind; a scalpel. Like, a precision blade kinda like the knife, except the cuts would be deeper, but not as deep as sword cuts. And also, another suggestion, maybe you could add a saw, not like a chainsaw, but like one of the manual ones that you have to move back and forth to cut. This would be useful for if you want to cause a lot of bleeding, but you don't want to fully cut off a limb by simply not sawing all the way through.
1. Not sure I understand the scalpel idea. How is that different to the knife - the knife only doesn't cut through bone, so how would the scalpel be deeper?
2. Actually a saw that you needed to move back and forth was also an idea I had. But I was thinking it would cut all the way through like the chainsaw.
I can't really picture how it would look and work if it didn't cut all the way through. Maybe you could clarify?
Oh, wait... that's actually a good idea. However, there is one problem with the logic of this. Scalpels tend to be much, MUCH sharper than knives, because knives are meant to cut stuff like meat, and scalpels are meant to cut flesh, and human flesh is tougher than many types of animal meat and/or skin, so scalpels would need to be sharp.
