Lightsabers can practically cut through any known material. RWBY would not have such a thing that powerful, so no. Just, no. It would break a person's Aura with prolonged contact. Such a weapon would not be practical in RWBY. Adam's sword is a different story so don't bring that up. I do bring it up. How is it a "different story"? His Semblance? Because that one is not restricted to his weapon, he could do the same with any other blade.
