'''Oathbringer''' is the name given to the [[Shardblade]] held by Brightlord [[Dalinar Kholin]]{{book ref|sa1|13}} and later by Brightlord [[Torol Sadeas]].
 
Oathbringer was the Shardblade of [[Sadees|the Sunmaker]] and was passed down through various owners to [[Tanalan]]{{book ref|sa3|11}}. Oathbringer was then Bonded to Dalinar when he was "twenty Weepings old".{{book ref|sa1|13}} after he defeated [[Tanalan]] at the Rift. He uses it in combat with the [[Parshendi]] and following the [[Battle of the Tower]], trades it for all of Sadeas' bridgemen after promising Kaladin that "you will be safe. I promise with every shred of honor I have.".{{book ref|sa1|69}}{{book ref|sa1|68}}
 
The blade is dropped by Sadeas when he is murdered by [[Adolin Kholin]] in [[Urithiru]]. Adolin discards the blade outside, dropping it to a balcony below, where it is later discovered by [[Bridge Four]] on patrol in the city. Upon being notified of this, Dalinar takes the blade and returns it to the heads of the [[Sadeas princedom]]; [[Ialai]] and [[Amaram]], and the latter bonds Oathbringer.{{book ref|sa3|28}}
Oathbringer is carried by Amaram until the battle of [[Thaylen City]], where upon being shot to death with a [[Grandbow]] by [[Rock]] -- who refuses to take up Amaram's Shards -- the blade is once again reclaimed by Dalinar, who chooses it as the namesake for his book.{{book ref|sa3|22}}
 
The blade is six feet long, slightly curved and a handspan wide. It has wavelike serrations near the hilt, and curved like a fisherman's hook near the tip.{{book ref|sa1|13}} While in the possession of Dalinar Oathbringer had a [[Polestone#Heliodor|heliodor]] set into it'sits pommel.{{reddit ref|Stormlight_Archive|4rstuc|d55s33h|text=Peter confirms Badali product description.|date=Jul 9th, 2016}}
