Can I use my nails as a useful weapon, or does the cost benefit

There's a reason we evolved to ball our hands into fists, while fingernails became useless.

disposable thumbs?

Because we were apes.
Primate musculature is MUCH more robust than ours.

Andre the Giant couldn't beat an average chimp in a fight. Apes are beasts.

Yes, fingernails are absolutely weapons. That's the first thing they teach in Women's Se;f Defense classes. Take Keratin to harded your nails up, and grow them out (a little). It's easy to tear skin, and pain will scare off most attackers.

A house cat probably won't kill you, but it'll hurt like fuck if you pick a fight.
Claws are very effective weapons.

Listen to me you little shit,

Ops come in two kinds : Those who are men and those who are faggots.
As I stated in Parts of Animals 687b, the form of hands is prehensility, not clawing shit. As nature does not make things in vain, using nails to survivre is a terrible idea, and you should either rely on tools or other people.
Obviously men have hands, unless they are misshapen or mutilated, which makes them monsters.

Now go be a man and use tools, instead of being a drooling retard, or an ape, who can't use guns.

You posted this on /out/ also,

Fucking nigger

Even in shadowrun they were shit m8

Also, OP, google "torn fingernail" pictures before you make your decision if it is a good idea.

This depends entirely upon the strength of your nails and if they are your natural or acrylic nails and how well you can file them into the correct shape.

I have nails which are similar in shape to the ones in the picture so I could say from personal experience that nails like that can can be extremely painful when used to scratch, A well filed nail easily cuts through skin and will cause scarring and some blood, this is something I learned after a person asked me to scratch them.

Long nails are for coke, my friend

You can sharpen your nail and slit someone's throat/wrist with it
