Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't it merely used during the bronze age when brain surgery first started? It was experimented with but due to too many disadvantages eventually failed to become a popular tool.
And as far as I know in current times it is not often used because you need to be particularly skilled (though you'd need to be very skilled nonetheless), but due to it being illegal.
And there are sharper "knives" but they get blunt after at most 100 cuts, which makes them pretty much useless compared to obsidian ones.

Yes you are totally correct in al those things you mentioned ... It surely started in the bronze age, And it is illegal to use it for surgery and other perposes .. I saw a video one day of a man trying to cut a tomato by this knife .. the tomato was maashed not cut .. I wonder why was that !!
It was mashed? o.o
Well uhm.... that shouldn't happen lol
Though sharp doesn't always mean "cutting better", but unless you use a knife, as dull as those at my home, a tomatoe wouldn't mash no matter what knife you use...
Either there is something we don't know about or it was fake ^^'
