The Dawn Blade is a unique, alien artefact sword wielded by the T'au leader known as Commander Farsight. The Dawn Blade is older than the Imperium, and was fashioned aeons ago by the strange xenos race that once inhabited the haunted world of its origin. Forged from materials that even the finest Earth Caste minds cannot fathom, its blade is sharp enough to cut through rock and all known forms of infantry and even vehicle armour; and its sculpted surface flickers with unknown energies which paint glittering arcs of destruction as it is swung.
