Burnblade

"These are genuine Qikost swords. Their blades are ever fine and true."

- Vertikus, a Sangheili weapons dealer

The burnblade was a Sangheili sword used in the Covenant's early history. They were manufactured by Sangheili living on Sanghelios' moon of Qikost. Burnblades were forged from metal and heated from within to deal devastating damage to targets. At a short distance, the burnblade's heat could scorch the exposed skin of any nearby individual. The blade of the sword was colored red.
