A quick question I was just pondering over lunch today. If I had a knife that had a width of one atom and slid it into an animal - would the animal die given I "stabbed" it in the correct place to kill an animal with a normal knife.

That's nothing
It would have to be enough molecules wide to puncture tissues, beyond repair

Even if it did cause damage it would just get blocked by the next atom or molecule that was bigger than the atom of your knife
Nothing would happen. You would fuck up a few cells maybe. Cells die all the time, no big deal.

A cell is made of 100 trillion atoms
You are retarded
WB one cell thick
A better question might be, what's the lower limit of thickness able to cause death?
You could fuck up someone's DNA in rapidly reproducing cells, like skin or something, and give them cancer. That'd be kinda cool. That's more or less how free radicals work, as far as I understand anyways.

That's an interesting question, I've asked myself something similar. Say you had a string that was one, or very few atoms thick. You use it as a cheese cutter to completely cut through a deer, starting from the top at its spine down through the guts and out the belly at the bottom. Does the deer get cut in half?
