Abstract
A single or multi-edge blade including a fractured edge. The blade can be oriented to be left-handed, right-handed, or two-sided. The size, shape and sharpness of the blade are a function of controlled variables during fracturing. The sharpness of the blade occurs along and at a molecular level in a controlled process, dependent upon the material and the predetermined variables of fracturing. The blade can consist of glass, crystalline, non-crystalline, composite or like materials. The process of fracturing the material is through controlled pressure at discrete angles over a defined area with predetermined force during a specific time interval.
