Featured in The Stormlight Archive, shardblades are usually two-handed swords capable of cutting through any nonliving material and are summoned by a wielder who has bonded with one. Living beings struck by shardblades are not cut, but instead wounded in the soul, while wounds from shardblades cause the affected area to go limp. Some are able to summon shardblades through a connection with supernatural creatures known as spren. A prominent shardblade, Oathbringer, is the namesake of the third book in the Stormlight Archive, which partially explores the sword's history with several of the main characters.
- Honorblades: The oldest known shardblades, which were given to a group of immortal beings known as Heralds by their namesake god and creator, Honor. Unlike typical shardblades, Honorblades grant their wielders the supernatural abilities of one of the orders of the Knights Radiant, which varies depending on the Honorblade used.
- Nightblood: First featured in Warbreaker, Nightblood is a sentient sword that, when drawn, usually causes those in its vicinity to attempt to kill each other to claim the sword for themselves. Though powerful, its power consumes the essence or soul of its wielder. Nightblood itself has an innocent, almost childlike personality, as it is unaware of many aspects of the world. It is bound by a single command: "Destroy evil," which can cause problems due to its limited understanding of morality.
- Koloss blades: Featured in the first trilogy of Mistborn books, they are massive swords used by the ogre-like koloss due to being too big for a normal human to wiel, though some magic users can increase their strength to do so. The number of swords that a koloss band has influences that band's hierarchy. Due to the koloss' brutal lifestyle and generally low intelligence, the blades are not well maintained or kept sharp.
(Sindarin: foe-hammer) Nicknamed "Beater" by the Goblins. First owned and wielded by Turgon, king of Gondolin, it was later wielded by Gandalf the White.
(Quenya: red fire-white brilliance; refers to the Sun and Moon as the great lights of the heavens) The sword of Elendil, which was broken when Elendil fell on it during his battle with Sauron. The shard is used to cut the One Ring from Sauron's hand by Isildur, Elendil's second son, while the sword is an heirloom of the House of Elendil, coming into Aragorn's possession as the heir to the thrones of Arnor and Gondor. It is reforged and renamed Andúril (Quenya: West-brilliance, usually rendered as the Flame of the West), fulfilling the prophecy that it shall be forged anew when the One Ring is found again. Andúril serves as Aragorn's primary weapon and as a symbol of good to all who oppose Sauron. It is the literary opposite of the One Ring.
(Sindarin: orc/goblin-cleaver) Called "Biter" by the orcs; used by Thorin Oakenshield.
(Quenya: cold-star) The sword of Fingolfin, king of the Noldor elves; used during his duel with Morgoth, the Great Enemy.
An Elven knife used as a sword by Bilbo, and later his nephew, Frodo. Sting has the characteristic of glowing when orcs are near, thus serving as an alert to its wielder.
- Anglachel (Sindarin: iron-fire-star) and Anguirel (Sindarin: iron-eternal-star): Swords forged from meteoritic iron by Eöl, the dark elf. They could cleave all earth delved iron.
- Gurthang
(Sindarin: death-iron) A sword formerly known as Anglachel and given its current name by Túrin Turambar, who wielded the sword until his suicide upon Gurthang's point. The sword is notable for apparently being sentient; it appeared to mourn the death of its former owner, the elf Beleg Cúthalion, and spoke in response to being hailed by Túrin just before his death. After being discovered to have broken under Túrin after his death, the shards were buried with him.
(Rohirric: very fierce, savage) The sword of Théoden, king of Rohan.
(Sindarin: king's-ire) The sword of Thingol, King of Doriath in Beleriand.
(Rohirric: battle-friend) The sword of Éomer.
