A '''shardhammer''', also known as a '''warhammer''' is an enormous battle hammer that can only be wielded by someone in [[Shardplate]]. Contrary to what it's name might suggest, it is not an ancient magical weapon like Shardplate or a [[Shardblade]], but rather, a more modern creation. Dalinar's warhammer is described as having a haft as "thick as a man's wrist" with the front of the head being larger than a man's fist. It could barely be lifted by two men and was carried on a cart.{{book ref|sa1|28}} A Shardbearer's hammer is a common weapon for someone who owns a set of plate, but no Shardblade.{{book ref|sa2|26}} |
