I do not ask hard questions. You are the one that started all of this "Magnetic Weapons" hard question stuff
What I am saying is that the metal handle is not directly connected electrically to the blade there is a one million ohm resistance between the two. In other words the hilt is not conductive to the blade, it is insulated form the blade so much so that if you were to energize the blade and you were to hold just the hilt you would not feel the anything from the blade being energized. Just another mystery of the dagger I call Mysore.
I hope this get you back out of the woods we need you here to ask the hard questions
Yes, your idea/thinking has merit, I have said before you are very astute
