	In [[Exalted]], a '''~~Diaklave~~''' is an ornate, enormous blade make from an alloy of one of the magical materials. They are enchanted to be lighter in the hand of their attuned wielder than they really are.

	Unfortunately, this hasn't always been represented in the rules. A ~~diaklave~~ isn't much more than a +2 sword equivalent in the earlier editions, with little variation from one to the next. Many players - and NPCs - didn't bother naming their weapons. You had a jade ~~diaklave~~, speed 4 acc 3 dam 6/2L def 2 attune 5, same as all the others. The book on artifacts gave guidelines on rating artifact powers, but gave little advice on combining them, even as it gave examples of ~~diaklaves~~ with extra powers. There was some effort in the [[Infernals]] book to introduce additional enchantments to place on an artifact weapon - chip damage on a parry, ignoring hardness, being more deadly at night, even having their own charms. That idea got expanded on in third edition, where every artifact weapon is given its own unique charms called Evocations, solving the uniqueness problem at last.
