* Students of Sword Lore in ''Webcomic/KillSixBillionDemons'' are capable of doing this through learning the act of Cutting. ''Skilled'' students of Cutting can do this without using a sword at all, as Maya demonstrates [[spoiler:by cutting through an entire building -- including the extremely irate angel standing in the middle of it -- using only a scabbard]].

It's explicitly remarked that if it takes more than one cut to disassemble your opponent, you're doing it completely wrong.

* IDW's ''[[ComicBook/GIJoeIDW G.I. Joe]]'' gives us the ninja Snake-Eyes. He slices up some practice dummies and seemingly misses. Until he stomps the floor and they slide apart.

to:

* IDW's ''[[ComicBook/GIJoeIDW G.I. Joe]]'' ''ComicBook/AlphaFlight'': Nemesis uses a mono-molecular blade that can slice through practically anything.
* ''ComicBook/{{Blade}}'': The ease with which Blade dices his enemies may be justified since he was upgraded with super strength (thanks to the movies), once punching the jaw off some charging creature in [[ComicBook/MidnightSons Midnight Sons Unlimited]]. Weapons sometimes don't hold up against some of the tougher enemies he fights, even when he clearly beats them.
* ''ComicBook/DaughtersOfTheDragon'': Colleen Wing's victims sometimes don't feel where she cuts them right away.

* Colleen Wing's victims in Creator/MarvelComics sometimes don't feel where she cuts them right away.

Weapons sometimes don't hold up against some of the tougher enemies he fights, even when he clearly beats them.
* Miho in ''ComicBook/SinCity'' is known for having such clean cuts that her victims don't know they've been slashed. She often only has to make one sword thrust before a head or arm comes off. In one instance, she threw her shuriken and chopped a man's head clean in half to the point that even his eyeballs were sliced and still in their sockets.
* Recurring ''ComicBook/AlphaFlight'' character Nemesis uses a mono-molecular blade that can slice through practically anything.
* In ''ComicBook/KickAss'', Hit Girl's swords are implausibly sharp for a comic that claims to be set in reality. There's also the fact that even a grown adult wouldn't be able to generate enough force to cut through bone in one swing (at least with those weapons), let alone a ten year old girl.
