* The Honorblades from ''[[The Stormlight Archive]]'' are ten swords bound by their wielder, known as a Herald. Honorblades grant wielders [[Functional Magic|Surgebinding]] in the form of two Surges. Surges are 10 fundamental forces of: Adhesion, [[Gravity Master|Gravitation]], [[Person of Mass Destruction|Division]], Abrasion, [[Healing Hands|Progression]], [[Master of Illusion|Illumination]], Transformation, [[Teleporters and Transporters|Transportation]], Cohesion, and Tension.
* The Lenses from [[E. E. "Doc" Smith]]'s classic Golden Age science fiction series ''[[Lensman]]''. These devices were [[Imported Alien Phlebotinum]] paired permanently with their wielders, the titular Lensmen, who acted as a kind of Galactic police force. The Lenses not only granted their owners impressive [[Psychic Powers]], they also acted as an unimpeachable identification of their owners; because of their origins and their permanent bonds with their owners, the Lenses could not be forged and anyone trying to impersonate a Lensman by wearing his Lens would be instantly killed.
