Rhisling

Not so much audible sharpness as deafening sharpness.

Rhisling is a sword that is able to open dimension gates.

Fiction

Cybertron cartoon

Rhisling was owned by Vector Prime. After his death, his Spark communed with Optimus Prime and gave the sword to him, albeit increasing its size, weight and power immensely. Optimus wielded Rhisling for the remainder of his battle with Galvatron, using it to impale his longtime foe, killing him and at last ending their conflict. The sword then disappeared soon after Galvatron's body did, going back to its master in the afterlife and being used by Vector Prime's spirit in further battle against that of Galvatron. Unfinished

Ask Vector Prime

Rhisling was originally a version of the Cyber Caliber, wielded by Mogahn the Mass. When Vector Prime and his Time Warriors faced off against the creature, Vector Prime, after regaining his memories as one of the Thirteen, took the sword from Mogahn and reformatted it using the power given to him by Amalgamous Prime into a sword that was able to slice through time.

Rhisling apparently conforms to the spark of its user; Vector Prime theorized that if his brother Alchemist Prime wielded the sword, the weapon would take on properties based on transmutation while losing its power to manipulate time.

In Aurex 1006.0 Beta, Optimus Prime also vanquished Megatron with Rhisling. Ask Vector Prime

TransTech

In his new, non-singular history, the Vector Prime of Nexus 208.0 Epsilon possessed Rhisling but had not called it such in a long time. He hoped that he would not need it in his mission to Nebulos. Ask Vector Prime, 9/11/2015
