Razor Floss	comment	Razor floss is when any long, thin material — string, thread, fine wire, etc — is used as a weapon with Absurd Cutting Power (for which it is a subtrope). Odd as it may sound, strings can become deadly weapons in the right hands. Besides restraining enemies and even controlling other people's bodies against their will, or triggering traps, they can be pretty handy for cutting. In many works of fiction, one skilled enough can use strings to cut opponents or even boulders, without hurting themselves. Naturally, monsters of the humanoid arachnid variety can usually be counted on to be using this trope. Fantasy settings generally have this type of string made of human hair, while in more modern and future ones it's probably monomolecular wire. Spider thread is used in both. In series less reliant on the Rule of Cool, the wires usually manifest as garrotes or tripwires, with varyingly messy outcomes. What the audience sees usually amounts to Sword Lines sans the sword. Can be counted on to inflict an absurdly Clean Cut on its victims. In reality, cables and metal wires can be used to inflict not-so-clean but still pretty nasty wounds, provided they are of the right material and/or sufficient force is applied. Cheese slicers frequently use thin metal wires stretched in a metal frame to accomplish this trope, for instance. The monomolecular form is an eternal dream of materials engineering: any material with enough tensile strength to be used as razor floss could be woven into cables of the sort needed to build a Space Elevator. note Carbon nanotubes could fit the bill if some hitches can be solved: production defects involving single atoms out of place can cut their strength by up to 85% A rarely addressed aspect of the trope occurs when the razor floss breaks or is cut. In such situations, it may snap back at the user like a rubber band. Compare Knows the Ropes, Whip Sword, and Killer Yoyo. Examples

And the whole scene was a parody of the fight with God Warrior Mime in the Asgardian arc of Saint Seiya. It's amazing how much of his clothes get cut by the closing loops, but how little of his skin actually breaks, probably because Mon Lon was toying with Ranma at the time. He was actually about to go for the kill when Shampoo intervened.

When they learn that the ship will pass through the Panama Canal, they prepare a spool of nanowire, string it across the canal a few times, and watch the ship and its occupants silently tear themselves apart as they run into it — a My God, What Have I Done? moment for the specialist, but a brutally effective one. Concerns are raised that the drives could be cut in the process, but it's concluded the cuts would be so thin and smoothed that electronics could be easily re-assembled. The crew, not so much.

Using a single strand of razor floss, he whips it at a target so that it coils around the target's limb, then pulls on it so that it unravels with such speed it cuts flesh. A fairly realistic portrayal in that it only works if he can strike a foe from the side with it- though he is skilled enough with it that, straight on, he can still inflict minor gashes or use it to pierce like a needle.

In the manga format, Leonof the Puppet Master also uses invisibly thin strings to control his hordes of killer marionettes (in the anime, he apparently just uses remote control). Finally, Legato's ability to control the bodies of his enemies is revealed to work by means of microscopic threads that infiltrate the nervous system and manipulate it by means of electrical pulses. Leonof did use wires in the anime; that was where Vash got the idea for the wire-trigger trick.

One of the items he isn't yet familiar with is a roll of monomolecular wire held together by a magnetic field. It becomes useful later when he's tied up with his love interest. He has her pull out the roll and use it to cut his bonds. She accidentally slices off a few of his fingers, but it's okay since he's in the body of a clone about to die.

He later uses it to decapitate Elf so that he can put her head into suspended animation and get her safely back to the ship before his last stand in one of the Schlocktoberfests. Supposedly it was named for Dorothy's magic slippers. She would click her heels together and say "there's no place like home."

The weapon takes the form of a noose made from strong wire and quickly tightened by a small electric motor. The hitman approaches the victim from behind, throws the noose around his neck, pulls it tight, activates the motor, and bolts before anyone can react. It takes only a few agonizing and very bloody seconds for the device to cut through the victim's fingers, then his jugular, before all but decapitating him as the noose continues to close. Gets all the more horrifying by the hit being carried out in broad daylight on a busy street with countless civilians to witness it, kids included.

This is foreseen by Esidisi (who also uses this trope via 1000 degree blood vessels), who cuts the ropes during their battle. Unfortunately for him, Joseph had employed the cut and restore rope trick to catch him off guard. In Stardust Crusaders, Joseph gains the Hermit Purple Stand that allows him to create vines out of his hand. However, in this arc it is Kakyoin who best uses the trope with his Hierophant Green Stand, setting countless wires around DIO during their final showdown. In Stone Ocean, Jolyne becomes this with her Stand, Stone Free. It unravels parts of her own body into durable strings, which are used in increasingly clever strategies. It further helps that the Stand itself is free to fight off enemies at close range with brute force while Jolyne handles the Trap Master work.

Razor Floss / int_bcadd7cb	comment	The Eldar of Warhammer 40,000 are fond of monofilament wire. Their jump troops, the Warp Spiders, are armed with a gun that fires it, and their artillery is armed with a much larger version of this gun that fires a cloud of the stuff, which then drops down on enemy troops and shreds them. Most notably are the Harlequins, who use a weapon called the "Harlequin's Kiss", a device that inserts a single monofilament wire down your throat and whips around at incredible velocity, which is effective, needless to say. The Eldar are still considered one of the more noble races in the setting, which says a lot about what kind of universe this is.

Razor Floss / int_bcb32dc6	comment	Shadowrun had monofilament swords and whips and used monofilament in traps. Judging from the hacker chatter in some of the Sourcebook, though, the monofilament whip is looked at as something of a fool's weapon, since an untrained user is as likely to decapitate himself as his enemy. This never gets reflected in in-game rules, of course, although it does suggest a truly evil result when the "Rule of Ones" comes into play. The 4th edition of Shadowrun does give explicit rules for what happens when someone botches a monowhip attack. It's pretty nasty. This is, however, made up for by the fact that the Monofilament Whip is arguably the single best melee weapon to use against an armored opponent due to it having excellent damage, long reach, and very good armor penetration. One of the sourcebooks also made fun of the use of the term "monofilament" with the chatter at the bottom of the monofilament sword entry commenting that his shoelace is monofilament (one piece) too, but it doesn't cut through anything. Specifically, it pointed out the difference between any old monofilament and a monomolecular monofilament. Much of the gear in that particular sourcebook fell into either the Awesome, but Impractical or completely foolish categories. In 3rd Edition, whips (including the monofilament variety) had a chance to strike the wielder if the target dodged (rather than the wielder just missing). Shadowrun Returns: Hong Kong adds the whip as an optional cyberware weapon implant. It can penetrate and degrade armor, has decent reach (it's treated as a short-range gun by the game mechanics, though it has a hard limit on attack distance), and can cause bleeding. It cannot, however, hurt you if you miss.

Used to horrifying effect with the Seventh Chrome Disaster attacks Yellow Radio's hunting party and apparently can pull players right to him before devouring them, as well as being able to change his trajectory mid-jump. This proves to be his undoing when he attaches the filaments to the far more maneuverable Silver Crow, who uses their unbreakable nature to slam Chrome Disaster into a building and weaken him enough to defeat him. A similar trick is used by the villainous character Rust Jigsaw, who can set near-invisible jigsaw blade traps in the air around him. His preference for hunting close quarter or melee Burst Linkers made him a dangerous threat when they inevitably tried to get close to him to deal some damage. Again, this strategy proved bad when he faced a Disaster Armor-controlled Silver Crow, who cut the distance between them by applying his own wires to Rust Jigsaw and yanking.

In the opening fiction, one of the Firewall Sentinels unknowingly puts her hand right through a web of monomolecular wire strung across a hallway by TITAN self-replicating nanoswarms; she doesn't even notice it has happened until her hand falls apart in front of her eyes.

It's perfectly safe if he doesn't fight it... and if he does, his hands fall off. This is used as a spaceship weapon in the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine novel Objective: Bajor — the enemy ships flew out in pairs with a monofilament net between them. The net was so fine it couldn't be seen or blocked by shields, but any ship that was netted simply crumpled to atoms, occupants and all. They also had a net pulled by torpedo, for when the paired ships were split up.

Razor Floss / int_eef5470a	comment	(Filler) A team of two villainous brothers in Rurouni Kenshin did this so well that the local townspeople thought they were using magic. Kenshin defeated them easily once he recovered his sword- he just cut the strings off.

Razor Floss / int_f70241e2	comment	The Arithmancer: Once Hermione learns how to rearrange any source of carbon into nanotubes, she can fill an area with strands too thin to easily see, but strong enough and sharp enough to cut a man to ribbons. It requires additional magic to be held in enough tension to allow it to cut. It works especially well on mindlessly attacking enemies like Inferi, but can inflict horrific wounds at a touch on anyone. Unfortunately, it's easily burned by a prepared opponent.

Razor Floss / int_fe83990a	comment	Saint Seiya The Asgardian God Warrior Benetnasch Eta Mime, wears a Cloth reminiscent of a harp. As such, he is prone to laying down Razor Floss around the environment as traps, as well as sending them flying towards his opponents to entangle them. Note that his harp's strings are strong, and sharp enough, to crack and cut through solid rock, as well as Bronze Cloths and the very human skin of the Saints wearing them. In the Hades Saga, the Silver Saint Lyra Orphee has a similar weapon (justified; the character is indeed based on Orpheus from Greek mythology). He battles another Musical Assassin, the spectre Sphinx Pharaoh. Two minor movie villains: Lyra Orpheus, the Ghost Saint appearing in the first Saint Seiya movie (Lyra Orphee has inspired by him) and one of Abel Saints, Berenice, from the third movie, who has the ability to launch several strands of hair. These hairs Berenices throws are able to trap and disrupt the enemy.
