This got ignored on the Oblivion Mods forum, so I'll stick it down here instead to be annoying :D

Yes, knives made of obsidian, a rock with edges of molecular sharpness. Surgical scalpels are made from this, so it would be like a cheat item with no actual cheating, just a very good item...

(no idea how to use the image tag thingy)

Anyone interested? I like that they would be very primitive and brutal, yet I suck at modding. :(

anyone here would be me, as it's me who model and texture all the 'thingy'...

I don't reply to request. Although I acknowledge them, read my FAQ to understand why...

Aye it's a good idea but should hold no enchantment value at all ;) Now we need a good cutthroat-animation ;)

I get that waalx, but just in case some other person freakishly skilled at weapon modelling comes by :)

I like sketching weapons too :) Thanks!

I don't mean to nitpick, but obsidian is a volcanic glass, not a rock. While it is very sharp, it is also very brittle, so it won't make an effective weapon. :/

Mainly used for blades that you don't want found by metal detectors. (Own one or two myself)
5 years of Oblivion and still going strong.
