The Metal Release: Tegatanakiri (金遁・手刀切, "Kinton: Hand Sword Cutter") is a technique that uses Lava Release properities to produce metallic like substance similar to diamonds or aluminum. This technique allows Suzaku to shape shift his hands into a sword like weapon giving it the same durability as a sword. With this technique he can cleanly pierce through targets without ease and deflect kunai and shuriken heading his way.
