Quoting The Shaddow: "Oh, *that* knife."

Seriously.

1. What's so "surgical" about two blades rotating through space that 
kill you instantly if you touch them?

2. Why would such a leathal device not have emergency stop buttons all 
over the friggin' place?

The answer, obviously, is that this wouldn't make very exciting 
gameplay. ;-) But that's still a kinda unsatisfying answer...
