Akima:
I blame Disney's Mulan for any impulse to cut hair with a sword. I doubt it would work well.

Storel:
If that sword is as dull as most commercially sold swords, it won't cut anything but butter.


...Although I wouldn't put it past either Dora or Faye to have spent some time sharpening it at some point.

BenRG:
I think that Faye actually forged that sword. Additionally, given that we've seen Dora drive it into the surface of the counter without much effort, I suspect that it is fully combat-sharpness.

I know that Massachusetts' gun laws are pretty strict but what laws govern edged weapons?

Storel:
"Assault with a deadly weapon" covers just about anything.

Edit:

All that shows is that it was sharp at one time. If it's made of stainless steel, it won't have stayed sharp for very long, as anyone who's ever had a stainless steel pocketknife (Boy Scout knife, Swiss Army knife, etc.) can verify. And if it's carbon steel, which is more likely if Faye made it herself, then it'll hold an edge longer but need a lot more rust-prevention care than it's probably gotten while lying around on a shelf under the counter.

Still, a rusty but sharp sword will probably do more damage than an unrusted but dull blade, assuming it hasn't rusted all the way through. Plus, anyone it hits will need to get a tetanus booster shot, too!  8-)

Masterpiece:
Kinda mad at Dora for being a hypocrite right now, but since Faye is in a better place, I'm not sorry for her. As always, Dora is as sensitive to the situation as a drunk Hulk.
