He Couldn't Lose [SG Spoilers]
kazimmoinuddin:
Didnt michael kill a dragon with his sword? That might mean it is a mantle killer item.
isoycrazy:
I think in the right place and right time, a Sword of the Cross could transform a mantle into a new shape and type of energy. Only He could outright break the laws of reality and muffle consequences.

Not everything is a mantle. There's no reason to suspect dragons are.

I dunno, Anduriel and friends lost soulfire with their little teenage rebellion, and Nicodemus still wanted them.
--- Quote ---Conservation of Energy
--- End quote ---
That doesn't mean matter is indestructible, simply that mass and energy are conserved, and that mass is converted to a proportional amount of energy. Literally, E=m*c^2.
eg, an electron and positron combine in an antimatter annihilation reaction. The matter is destroyed, and converted to energy in the form of a high-energy photon (gamma radiation).
In the same way, a rechargeable battery that has been depleted has very slightly less mass than one with a full charge. Because some of the mass has been converted into electrical energy to perform work. (it's nothing you can measure on a scale)
If these laws of physics apply to mantles, then energy drawn from them either decreases their total amount of potential energy, or their mass.
vultur:
I think all 3 "significant" knives are separate items:
-the athame Lea got, Morgan le Fey's per WoJ, vector for N-fection & some kind of power
-Medea's bodkin, Harry used it to kill Slate
-the knife in Hades' Vault
