Are Honorblades made from Honors god metal

[Wits instant noodles he/him]

Are Honor blades made from Honors metal or are thy just incredibly invested metal? If so what about shard blades, what are they made from?

Honorblades are mades of Honor`s god metal.

Shardblades are spren manifesting as physical objects so they are a mix of Honor`s and Cultivation`s god metals.

Is that entirely true? I always assumed that Honorspren were completely of Honor and Cultivatiospren were completely of Cultivation, with the other higher spren being mixes of the two.

Yes

The metal of Shardblades. Cultivationspren versus honorspren, for example. Are they different metals?

Brandon Sanderson

No, but good question.

Alpharho

Are all orders the same alloy, essentially?

Brandon Sanderson

Yes. There's a little asterisk on there, but not in the way you're asking... You could call those all the same alloy. Because the mixture to different spren is different, I think that you could argue that each one is its own alloy.

Alpharho

So, different proportions of tanavastium?

Brandon Sanderson

Yes, but it doesn't quite work that way with these magics, right? I'm going to say that's up to the individual cosmerologist who is in the world, the arcanist, defining it. You would be able to find enough differences to legitimately call them different alloys if you wanted to.

Alpharho

Would you say different ratios of the same two metals?

Brandon Sanderson

Yes. They are not going to have a third one in them, if that's what you're asking. But it doesn't quite work that way. Like, if you were going to take brass, you could measure the exact percentage. In this case, it is a thing; it's not like you could divide it up and split them apart, because they are a thing. And that thing would be called one thing.

Alpharho

But you won't say what that thing is called?

Brandon Sanderson

No, I won't say what that thing is called. But I think you and the 17th Sharders and folks that are dividing them would prefer to call them ten different things, and I think their nomenclature would be relevant.

The honorspren were created by Honor himself, many thousands of years ago.
