Well sure, but it's also good to give you a rundown on various patterns and options. Like any tool it's only as good as the wielder

Most tools aren't actively detrimental to use, though. It's like a hammer where the handle is covered in spikes. Even if you're a genius and know how to hold it without cutting your hand, most people would just use a different hammer. And I'm not going to let that toolsmith off the hook, either.
