Misplaced, moving to the correct tab - there's no reason to lump examples from one work in with those from another, even if one of that work's authors is the same. Tried to put it in alphabetical order, but may have got it wrong

** Inverted in ''Literature/GuardsGuards!'', during a discussion about Carrot's sword, an astoundingly non-magical and weathered (but still very functional) specimen. Sgt. Colon very briefly wonders if old kings' swords weren't really marked by their glinting light or [[AudibleSharpness impressive sounds]], because the kings that were around in the old days wouldn't need something showy, but something that needed to be bloody good at cutting things. In the next City Watch book, ''Literature/MenAtArms'', the sword proves so sharp and durable that Carrot nails a bad guy through his midsection to a stone pillar.

** Possibly referenced in ''Literature/GoodOmens'', when War has her sword delivered. The narration points out that it's not a fancy magical sword, just one obviously designed to hurt, kill, and maim as many people in as efficient a manner as possible.
** Another ''Literature/GoodOmens'' reference: The names Nutter and Device. They sound too appropriate and funny to be real, but both names are not only authentic Lancashire family names, but the names of two of the "[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pendle_witches Pendle Witches]]", victims of Britain's most famous witch trial. For reference, "Nutter" is an Old English word for "cowherd", and "Device" is pronounced DEH-viss and is just an alternate spelling of "Davis".

** It's mentioned in multiple books, such as ''Night Watch,'' that black is actually not the best color to wear for night camoflauge. Vetinari uses other dark colors, such as blues, greens, and browns, when he actually wants to go unseen. The Assassins (not to be confused with mere assassins) wear black because it's stylish. (Also, to be identifiable and give their targets a chance. Otherwise, "everyone would be locked in their rooms with a crossbow pointed at the door.")
