The mightiest of these blades is the [[Sword of Secrets]], wielded by the Supreme Grand Master of the Chapter (currently [[Azrael|Commander Azrael]]).<sup>1 p.46</sup> Small portions of the meteoric obsidian were also used to craft the [[Sword of Silence]], wielded by the Master of the [[Deathwing]] (currently Master [[Belial]]),<sup>1 p.42</sup> and the [[Raven Sword]], wielded by the Master of the [[Ravenwing]] (currently Master [[Sammael]]).<sup>1 p.44</sup> It is said that some of the obsidian was sent to the other [[Unforgiven]] Chapters, so that their highest leaders may wield weapons crafted from this substance.<sup>1 p.43</sup>
