The Executioner's Blade is a craftable post-Moon Lord rogue weapon. When used, it rapidly auto-fires a continuous stream of purple blades that home on nearby enemies and explode on impact. The blades pass through tiles and travel for a moderate distance before being affected by gravity. Each use of the weapon throws a set of three blades but when the attack button is held down, it will throw continuously. The blades inflict the God Slayer Inferno debuff.

Performing a stealth strike with the Executioner's Blade causes a row of twenty identical blades to fall swiftly downwards once the resulting blades strike which deal 60% damage. The row of blades will not home on enemies unlike the main blades.

Its best modifier is Flawless.
