Something tell me Kirito was envisioning this guy touching any weapon and having it melt into paste on contact. It shows a bit in the way he worded it (namely, without mentioning any sort of time period in which he'd have to be making contact).

Plus, it takes a LOT of energy to be able to vibrate the atoms in solid objects so fast that they destabilize and fall apart. Differing amounts of energy depending on the object in question. Melting objects operates on the same principal, as that's what heat does: it speeds up molecules and makes them become loose, causing the object to melt. I'm not saying the power equates to a heat-generating Semblance, but the metal that Hunter weapons are most likely made of would be extremely hard to just break apart.

If the power was that he could eventually cause a weapon to break apart by holding onto it long enough and vibrating it with enough energy, then it'd be far more acceptable. As it stands, it sounds almost like the guy just has to poke them and they melt to goop.
