A gtet is a traditional sword used in Thaylenah on Roshar.[1]

Appearance

The gtet has a large, triangular-shaped blade that is very wedge-like. The blade extends down past the grip, which is held like a fist. The grip is directly at the bottom and part of the hilt rests around the wrist for support. The gtet is carried in a sheath at one's side when it is not in use.[1]

Trivia

  • Kylrm, one of Vstim's guards, carries a gtet as his weapon, along with a bow.[1]
  • The description of the gtet has some similarities to both a Rosharan blade known as the kattari and a real-life dagger from India known as the katar.[2]
