'''Shardblades''' were magical weapons of unknown origin which were used by the [[Knights Radiant]] on [[Roshar]].
 
 
Shardblades were much longer than than an average blade (a notable exception being [[Szeth]]'s Shardblade).
They were unbreakable and could cut through any non-living material with ease. When a Shardblade encountered living flesh, it severed the creature's soul rather than its body; however, once the creature was killed, the remains interacted with the blade like any other non-living material.
