The blade is unwieldable to players as the weapon disintegrates along with the rest of the body immediately after the Knights are destroyed. However, it is usable by players when they are [[Assassination#Promethean Knight|assassinating a Knight]], whereupon the player tears the blade-arm off the Promethean and uses it to stab its former owner in the chest for the kill. | ||

The eighth type, used by the [[Warden Eternal]], functions differently from the others, as it starts as a closed up disc shape, and then hardlight extends from two ends. The ninth type, known as the [[Knight blade]], is used by [[SPARTAN-IV program|SPARTAN-IVs]] as a [[weapon attachment]] for the following loadout weapons: [[MA5D assault rifle]], [[BR85 battle rifle|BR85N battle rifle]], and [[M395 DMR|M395B DMR]].<ref>'''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]'''</ref> | There are 9 types of Hardlight Blades in the games, a unique type per [[Promethean Knight]] class (Basic, Lancer, Battlewagon, Commander, Marshal, Strategos, and Champion).
