No. Have we seen anyone else using it? At all? Although.. could it be in one of the Nails? Did that propagate the lightsaber blade? Butters just pulled teh trigger, it was not in him.

Is it generally known Harry HAS Soulfire? Might mark him as someone who has friends in REALLY high places that you might try to avoid messing with.

He would make a gun capable of doing the same.

I'm wondering if you could have a gun - does a magic sword work for anyone, or does it channel their magic power? You might need to be touching the item. Otherwise I'd assume Luccio would have made a gun - she carried one in the West...

You could say it is in the Holy Swords since there supposedly an angel in the hilt of each of them.

Conspiracy Theorist:
The circumstances were correct in the creation of the Faithsaber, Butters Faith allowed the sword to reshape itself into its new form. It should noted both Harry and the even more powerful Spear were there, acting as catalysts on Butters and the Sword.

One tends to forget how much Harry reshaped Butters to make him the Knight he is, and the Spear I think selects a probability where the wielder wins, creating the Faithsaber, or showing Harry Maggies ‘death’ was fake strengthening Harry’s will and undermining Ethnui’s. It gives a path to victory but you have to take it, free will.  Perhaps that path to victory one day will be by Mab’s death, or Maggies, or Harry’s. Hard choices to be made.

  I don't think Harry reshaped Butters, he always a man of courage.  He would not change his findings on an autopsy, saying that the supernatural was involved in a death. Sorry I cannot remember if he said that the death was caused by the supernatural or that the corpse wasn't exactly human. Either way he stood by his findings even though he was considered mentally ill for saying so and even spent time in a hospital.  His career suffered a huge set back because of it.  Harry always respected him for that and respected his intelligence, though Thomas judged him to be a coward.  In Dead Beat, he did his best to pull Cassius off of Harry when he was trying to kill him until Mouse intervened.   It was that scene that was the tip off that Butters would become a Holy Knight some day.  Harry actually prayed for God to send someone, and who showed up? Butters.
