I mean, obsidian is like one of the most sharpest types of material a sword can be made in. Sure, in real life, it's brittle. But in fictionland, it's better than steel.

For a real life example of a legit obsidian weapon, look up the Macuahuitl.

That said, I still don't know how the fuck Cinder made a string for her bow. I think I know what made the bowstring: Fiberglass

Combine glass with the plastic/rubber substance of her suit and you can make fiberglass.
