A '''Frost Blade''' is an ornate type of [[Chainsword]] used solely by the [[Space Wolves]] chapter. Each one is hand-crafted by a Master [[Iron Priest]] , and incorporates many incorporate the diamond-hard fangs of the [[Fenris|Fenrisian]] [[Kraken (Sea Creature)|Ice Kraken]]. They are highly sought after and in the skilled hands of a [[Space Marine]] they can be comparable in effect to most [[Power Weapons]]<sup>1</sup>.
A variant is the '''Frost Axe''', which incorporates the same elements. Frost axes are sometimes made from energized diamond, giving them the appearance of blades forged from pure ice.<sup>1</sup>
