A worm tooth is a weapon dropped by a long worm when it dies. It is a very poor weapon, but if you enchant it (and leave it in your possession) it becomes a crysknife.
Mythology
The worm tooth represents the tooth of a dead sandworm from Frank Herbert's Dune series of novels.
Encyclopedia entry
[The crysknife] is manufactured in two forms from teeth taken
from dead sandworms. The two forms are "fixed" and "unfixed".
An unfixed knife requires proximity to a human body's
electrical field to prevent disintegration. Fixed knives
are treated for storage. All are about 20 centimeters long.
[ Dune, by Frank Herbert ]
