I only came in here to vote for Shardfork and it's not even on there!

Same.

[The Thinking Herald he/him]

Has to be Shardhammer for me. Imagine being like a certain Baratheon from ASOIAF and completely whammying through enemy forces with a hammer, except that this one can be sharp as well! And you wouldn't even need a fancy mould and cast for it.

[SpliceosomeofAdolnasium he/him]

I got to say shardspear ( because i'm darkeyes and love kaladin) or shardblade  ( who doesn't love a good sword) but I'm very curious to know how a shardbow  i mean I know that they require a separate string but does the spren split into 2 parts?

[Lord Mistborn Bondbreaker he/him]

I would really like a 15’ Shardlance/Shardspear because that sort of weapon is best suited to flying, and the order I fit into (SKYBREAKERS) can fly.

[The One Who Connects he/him]

Judging by the votes so far, I'm gonna have to make a case for the Axe, aren't I?

[T8* he/him]

I have to say sword. I have always wanted a 8 foot long sword that can cut through everything. An axe might be pretty cool though.

[aurik he/him]

Where is the shardfork??

[Toaster Retribution he/him]

Hard... I like a lot of them, but either I go Aquaman with the trident, or I join @The One Who Connects in axing people. The fact that I live in Scandinavia, which means vikings, which means axes, means that I go axe. Shard-vikings!

How DARE this poll not include the mightiest of all Shard Weapons, which will eventually be used to slay even Odium himself? The Shardfork MUST be added! Do not allow this immigrant brighteyes glowcop to malign the holy tines!

Chakram. Because I want to throw a multiple foot wide disc of death through a horde of enemies.

You know, I’m super pumped for a sci fi Roshar in Mistborn Era 3. Summoning a pistol or automatic rifle out of no where and firing in one smooth motion is gonna be soo slick  so hidden vote for shard gun from me

Firing might be a problem, as the spren can't make multiple pieces.  (Guns are also comprised of multiple pieces, but there's probably a Cognitive workaround for that)

EDIT: Assuming there's no live spren attached, I'd go with a Sharddagger.  Otherwise, the major draw of a sprenblade is its versatility, so I'd choose all of the above.

Yeah I don’t know how exactly they would figure that out but it and the shardbow have similar hurdles to overcome, so I’m sure someone could figure something out. If I’m remembering right, there was a wob about shard guns and Sanderson said “rafo” or “you’ll see some cool stuff in Mistborn Era 3” or something along those lines.

[kenod]

How about a whip sword?

[Vissy]

Shardnet.

[Krios]

Went with Shradspear, because there is no Shardhalberd.

[Willshaping Crasher]

Gotta go with the shardfork.  Can I get a shard dueling cane in case Wayne comes to Roshar?

[Omega Man]

I'd love to see more shard weapons implemented. All of these would be cool, but a shardaxe sounds especially awesome.
