The other side was made out of what Lyra assumed to be the same type of metal used in intercisions (which would make it a manganese-titanium alloy) and was described to be "shade-coloured." This side of the blade had an edge even keener, narrow to the point neither a human nor panserbjørn (who was a master blacksmith) could perceive it with the naked eye, and had the ability to "feel" the gaps in the fabric of multiverse and use them to cut through the fabric, thus opening portals into alternate universes. One side of the blade was made out of steel and had the edge so keen, it could cut through any physical material with negligible resistance. The knife was described as common looking with short, dual edged blade, made out of two different metals.

Two chapters offer a general survey of Aristotle’s extant works in order to convey the idea that these works taken as a whole express a characteristically Aristotelian commitment to scientific rationality: each science is conceived as an autonomous field determined by its own internal principles, and this applies to poetics just as much as it does to more obvious candidates such as physics or biology. The general reader in this case does not require any knowledge of Greek or indeed of Aristotle beyond some familiarity with the Poetics. There is a deliberate intention to engage the general reader as much as the Aristotelian expert.
