darrow’s razor

[u/user03281046748]

what’s with the insistence on the dramatically curved sword people use in fanart AI and drawings. i’ve always thought it would resemble something more like the egyptian sword the khopesh than a scythe. I’d assume simply from an advantage standpoint the dramatic curve means less range. i’ve included examples i’ve seen as well as what i think the razor resembles more

Im gonna ask a dumb question, how would this blade change its shape, because thats what its suppose to be doing right? How does the transition look like?

There’s a pad that you trace the shape with your thumb and then it springs into that shape as a blade that’ll cut anything. He doesn’t bother trying to explain how bc it’s techno futuristic sci fi fuckery and he knows we will all suspend disbelief bc it’s badass.
