Commentary 50

The magickian should, if possible, prepare the magical dagger by hand. Most conveniently, take the blade of a metal file and heat it glowing on a bed of charcoal whilst fanning the embers furiously, then allow slow cooling. Grind down to the shape of a blade with a second file. Reheat to cherry red and then quench to re-temper. Fashion and fit a guard and handle. Pass the used second file to a worthy colleague.

To chaobolt a suitable anti-chaotic institution or group, prepare a suitable sigil, visualize it astrally onto the dagger, and astrally hurl the resulting missile at the target. Alternatively, hurl the dagger physically at a symbolic image of the target, with full gnosis.
