So, I make my own weapons, super swank.
What I'm wondering is, if I create a weapon with EL wire embedded in it, will it pass safety?
Ex:
I make a super awesome two handed axe with runes carved into the head and/or haft.
I glue EL wire deep inside those carvings in such a way as to ensure it will never come into contact with a player, we're talking a small slit large enough to let light out and with at least 1/4" of foam before you get to the wire. The carvings would not be on a striking surface.
Assuming the weapon is otherwise up to safety specs, and the battery/power supply is integrated in such a way as to not make the weapon unsafe, would this fly?

Here's an LED example, same basic concept: http://www.foamsmithing.com/latexel-wicked-axe-by-pieter/
