The Marvel Universe is full to the brim with individuals fighting one another with their fists, boots, and massive amounts of energy of all varieties. However, just because a superhero or villain has powers doesn't mean that they won't make use of whatever weapons come their way.
It's almost hard to imagine using a blunt or edged weapon in a universe with the Infinity Gauntlet and the Ultimate Nullifier, but there are some melee weapons across the Marvel Universe that are immensely powerful. Enchantments and advanced technologies can turn an already deadly blade into a universe-shattering superweapon.
10 The Ebony Blade Is A Magic Repelling Sword That Makes Its Wielder Immortal
The Ebony Blade was created by the wizard Merlin as a dark counterpart to the legendary Excalibur. It was wielded by the first Black Knight, Sir Percy, and has been passed down to his descendants across the generations. It is now wielded by Dane Whitman, the current Black Knight.
This sword is incredibly powerful, able to deflect and absorb magic spells and making its wielder unkillable. However, it has the drawback of corrupting those who wield it, and it has been assailing Dane Whitman's mind constantly.
9 The Soulsword Can Repel Magic And Break Spells
The Soulsword is the physical manifestation of the life force of Magik, aka Illyana Rasputin. This weapon amplifies Illyana's own magical capabilities and aids in her ability to teleport herself and those around her across dimensions.
In addition to that, it can disrupt spells and damage magical beings. It is a supernatural sword that can touch the untouchable, and Magik can restrict those who are able to use it.
8 The Muramasa Blade Can Kill Unkillable Beings
The Muramasa blade is a katana forged from a shard of Wolverine's soul. It is an incredibly sharp blade capable of killing anyone with a healing factor. This has only been proven on the likes of Wolverine and Sabretooth, but that capability implies it could also kill the Hulk, Thor, and other beings with enhanced regenerative abilities.
This is a weapon designed to kill immortals, and that is nothing to shrug at. A second Muramasa blade was recently forged by the Hand in the depths of Hell, and its current whereabouts are unknown.
7 Jarnbjorn Is An Enchanted Axe That Can Cut Through Celestial Armor
Jarnbjorn is an axe that was forged as part of an extended plot by Kang the Conqueror. He contrived a meeting in the past between Thor and Apocalypse--the latter of whom is clothed in nearly indestructible Celestial Armor. The young and brash Thor had an axe enchanted to be able to cut through Celestial Armor, and Jarnbjorn was born.
The axe was stolen by Kang and, later, by the Apocalypse Twins. The latter used it to slay a Celestial, meaning that this axe can kill the very architects of existence. Recently, it was revealed that this axe was actually intended for a Valkyrie by the name of Runa.
6 Captain America's Shield Is (Near) Indestructible And A Symbol
Captain America's shield has now mystical properties or enchantments, but it is still one of the most powerful melee weapons in existence. It is made from Vibranium and "Proto-Adamantium", making it nigh indestructible and capable of disrupting all manner of energy. It is also weighted in such a way that Cap is able to throw it with unique precision.
It is also a symbol of justice and hope to the downtrodden and a symbol of strength and resistance for those who wish to oppress their fellow human being.
5 The Twilight Sword Is A Weapon That Can Slay Gods
The Twilight Sword is the signature weapon of Surtur the Fire Giant. It is a sword of immeasurable power and is a central part of Surtur's goal to set fire to all of reality. It was forged in the fires of a burning galaxy, and Surtur is destined to use it to slay Odin during Ragnarok.
The actual properties of the Twilight Sword are quite vague, as much of its power has only been purported rather than exhibited. However, its magics were strong enough to reject Surtur after his last defeat and to return Beta Ray Bill to his original Korbinite form on command.
4 The Universal Weapon Can Alter Reality On A Local Level
The Universal Weapon is the name given to the hammer of Ronan the Accuser. He is the greatest of the Kree Accusers and is one of the highest-ranking officials in the Kree Empire. The Universal Weapon has the ability to warp reality on a localized level.
In addition to that, the Universal Weapon is near-indestructible and can reflect energy and unleash its own blasts of cosmic power.
3 The Stormbreaker And Thunderstrike Are Still-Powerful Recreations Of Mjolnir
There have been several recreations of Mjolnir over the years, but the two most notorious are Beta Ray Bill's Stormbreaker and Thunderstrike's Mace (which is also called Thunderstrike). These are powerful hammers that can summon storms and fire blasts of lightning.
There are also the weapons of the Worthy, the vanguard of the Asgardian God of Fear known as Cul. These weapons seem to amplify the already immense power of its wielders (who were the likes of the Hulk, the Thing, Absorbing Man, and the Juggernaut). However, these weapons also controlled the minds of their wielders, forcing them to serve Cul.
2 All-Black The Necrosword Is A Profane Weapon Of Immeasurable Power
All-Black the Necrosword was the first symbiote created by Knull, God of the Symbiotes. Unlike later symbiotes, All-Black seems to have no will of its own. Instead, it is a weapon that grants its wielders the powers of a god--or to slay gods.
All-Black allows gives its wielder immense strength, indestructibility, immortality, matter control and manipulation, and the ability to control dark energy. Gorr the God-Butcher used All-Black to meld with the very fabric of reality and become All-Black the Necroverse before Thor summoned the Celestial Storm to destroy him.
1 Mjolnir Is A Weapon Capable Of Shattering Planets And Summoning Galactic Storms
Mjolnir has proven time and again to be the most powerful weapon in existence. Capable of summoning immense storms, granting the strength to move mountains, and propelling its wielder across the universe, Mjolnir truly is the ultimate melee weapon.
Forged from Uru, Mjolnir is almost completely indestructible and can land blows capable of destroying entire worlds. It is truly a mighty weapon worthy of the God of Thunder, Thor.
