No need for Father Bronze when you have the internet and it's infinite wisdom

Found on internet

Grammar English's Famous Rule of Punctuation: Never use a comma between a subject and its verb

Therefore the comma should be removed as it is seperating blade from is!

I knew this, but explaining it would have been difficult....the comma in its use as a differentiating puncuation is an adverbial defect resulting in a conjuction of the prepostion, distinguishing a verb from its subject
