The Sharpest Things in the World

Panel 1: Sapphire scalpel. Panel 2: Obsidian knife. Panel 3: Tungsten needle, 1 atom thick. Panel 4: Baby fingernails

Inspiration for this came from having a baby with sharp fingernails. Go figure.

This seemed to resonate with the Reddit audience, amassing over 3x the upvotes of anything I’ve ever done before.
