Nettle

Naught more than an overlarge paper knife. But this cunning blade seeks a cunning hand. An ornamental dirk of Skelflandish make. Held in the bookbinder's grip, Nettle is designed to slice open the delicate edges of a folded page. 'Twas tween these bound folds that Skelflandish tradition sealed secret messages. And a word, as much as any blade, can cut deep.
