Mehrunes' Razor (Oblivion)

 is a daedric artifact of Mehrunes Dagon, The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion.

History
A powerful daedric artifact located in Cyrodiil. It was created by the Daedric Lord Mehrunes Dagon and has the ability to kill a target instantly using its Daedric Banishing magic. The weapon also has the ability to take the souls of the enemies that it banishes. It is located in the lost Ayleid city of Varsa Baalim. In the Fourth Era the arch mage Frathen Drothan was excavating the ruins in an attempt to locate it. The fort of Sundercliff watch was built atop these ruins during the Reman Dynasty.

The Dark Brotherhood has coveted this ebony dagger for generations. This mythical artifact is capable of slaying any creature instantly. History does not record any bearers of Mehrune's Razor, however, the Dark Brotherhood was once decimated by a vicious internal power struggle. It is suspected that the Razor was involved.
