Occam’s Razor, not to be confused with the philosophical principle of the same name, is a sterility technique devised in the late 13th century by English monk William of Ockham for cutting things apart.
The practitioner starts by mentally dividing an object into two parts; they then imbue the perceived gap between them with sterility in a manner that causes a complete inversion of the strong interaction. The result is a clean separation between the two parts, much finer than would be possible with any knife or other tool.

Because it requires a high degree of concentration, it is usually unsuitable for battle, though some of the most experienced C.H.E.S. masters, mainly Nuck Chorris, have been known to make use of it in combat.
