Default Sands of Time

Watching "Prince of Persia" for the umpteenth time, I was thinking about adding the "Sands of Time" dagger as a magical weapon. Letting the owner to replay a move (or two) after seeing the results of the current move. Any thoughts?

1) What if there was someone able to perceive these "rewinds"? I expect they would go to great lengths to acquire this weapon.

2) If there were two of these daggers being used against each other, alternately rewinding when the other had done, time would effectively stop, except for the 5 or 10 second repeating window.

What would be the going price for a dagger that generated a bound lesser wish everytime you sacrificed 400 XP to it?

Lesser Wish sounds good. There would only one dagger in the world. Enough sand for three replays
