It seems apparent that the Honorblades are related to the [[Oathpact]] somehow. The Heralds all left them behind when they broke the Oathpact, so it is possible that they may have been what bound the Heralds to the Oathpact in the first place. Nine of the Honorblades were left stabbed into the rock at the location where the final battle of [[Aharietiam]] occured.{{book ref|sa|part=prelude}} The Shin have seven of the Honorblades (Szeth is in possession of the eighth).{{book ref|sa2|88}} [[Talenel]]'s Blade, which is shaped like a spike, is still with him when he returns to [[Roshar]] for the [[True Desolation]].{{book ref|sa1|epilogue}} The location and identity of the tenth Honorblade are still unknown though it does not give access to the Progression surge.{{book ref|sa2|I|14}} Given that [[Nale]] has been seen using a Shardblade, it has been widely speculated that he retrieved his Honorblade at some point.
 
The [[Parshendi]] "... left one in Alethkar on that night." (when they assassinated [[Gavilar Kholin]]{{book ref |sa2|I|4}}
 
Honorblades are not the same thing as the [[Dawnshard]]s: [[Shallan]] refers to them as distinct things.{{book ref|sa1|29}}
 
[[Syl]] is the first to explicitly state this power of Honorblades, mentioning that "...[the blade Szeth had wielded would] turn anyone into a Windrunner..." She also states an Honorblade consumes the Stormlight of its user as well, thus Surgebinding granted by one requires "a dangerous amount" of stormlight.
