Meaning and boundaries

The blade itself may not be the only cause. Fabrication debris, construction grit, coating contact, blade condition, motion, angle, and pressure can all affect damage.

Why it matters in glass restoration

The condition requires identifying heat treatment and exposed coatings because blade use and resulting damage risks differ by product.
