▲'''Adolin's Shardblade''' is a nameless [[Shardblade]] bonded to [[Adolin Kholin]]
==Appearance==
The blade is shaped like a larger version of a standard longsword and bears some resemblance to the two the enormous two handed broadswords traditionally wielded by Horneaters. It's surface is smooth and sinuous, like an eel, with ridges of crystal at the back.{{book ref|sa2|14}}. When summoned, the mist it forms from is in the shape of vines.{{17s ref|post|224039|Does this mean that the Radiant that the blade was originally bonded to was an Edgedancer?|date=2 February 2015}}
==History==
At some point before the beginning of the story Adolin dueled a lighteyes named [[Tinalar]]. Against everyone's expectations he won the duel and secured the blade as his own. He never named it, believing it had a name of it's own and that it would be pretentious to change it. Adolin often speaks to the shardblade and imagines that it listens to him. He believes that something that feels like an extension of the soul itself is impossible to wield without feeling as though it too is alive.{{book ref|sa2|14}}
▲When summoned, the mist it forms from is in the shape of vines, because the [[Knight Radiant]] who originally bonded the blade was an [[Edgedancer]].{{17s ref|post|224039|Does this mean that the Radiant that the blade was originally bonded to was an Edgedancer?|date=2 February 2015}}
The shardblade was one of the shards placed on the line in Adolin and Dalinar's dueling campaign to disarm the [[Shardbearers]] of the [[Highprinces]]{{book ref|wor|5}}. The most important duel of these duels being the one against [[Relis]], [[Elit]], [[Abrobadar]] and [[Jakamav]]{{book ref|wor|56}}{{book ref|wor|57}}. It was also present at many battles, including [[The Battle of the Tower]]{{book ref|twok|66}{{book ref|twok|67} and [[The Battle of Narak]]{{book ref|wor|81}}{{book ref|wor|82}}{{book ref|wor|83}}{{book ref|wor|84}}.
