Ridesaber

is a sword summoned with Ryuki Blank Form's Sword Vent card.https://www.kamen-rider-official.com/zukan/item/1184 At 300 points, it is the weakest-known weapon in the entire Advent Deck system. Ryuki attempts to use the Ridesaber to fight against Dispider, but it uselessly breaks after one strike. 
After Ryuki made the contract with Dragreder, he uses the much stronger Dragsaber as his sword weapon.

==Meme==
In episode 1 of Ryuki, the scene where Ryuki Blank Form reacted in response to the snapped Ridesaber is popularized into a meme amongst the Japanese fandom, dubbed as , where a slew of fan arts presented with other characters having their sword snapped into half.https://dic.pixiv.net/a/%E6%8A%98%E3%82%8C%E3%81%9F%E3%81%81%21%3Fhttps://dic.nicovideo.jp/a/%E6%8A%98%E3%82%8C%E3%81%9F%E3%82%A1%21%3F This scene was admittedly an ad-lib courtesy of suit actor Seiji Takaiwa, who in an interview mentioned that it was inspired through his thought process that "if Ryuki's Blank Form is weak, then he has to do something to express said situation". He also yelled the aforementioned quote during the filming, which ended up incorporated into the script that Takamasa Suga (Shinji Kido's actor) had to voice over during the dubbing process by director Ryuta Tasaki. Takaiwa also mentioned that it was during this moment where most of Shinji's characterization was developed after that.https://news.mynavi.jp/article/20181227-kamenrider/
Other uses of the meme also seen below:
*The S.H.Figuarts release of the Ryuki Blank Form includes the Ridesaber, both in its original and snapped forms to reenact the infamous scene.
*The scene made it to the first episode of Kamen Rider: Dragon Knight. The English version simply has Dragon Knight Blank Form shouting, then reacted with "Huh?" as the blade snapped. The Japanese dub however has Tatsuhisa Suzuki providing a semi-faithful dialogue to the source material, that he shouted in a half-subdued reaction in contrast to Shinji's hot-blooded demeanor.
*AkaNinger from of shouted the quote above in reaction to his equipment's destruction by Advanced Yokai Nue.
*The production notes for episode 23 of Kamen Rider Geats has the editor expressing this meme upon the photograph for Kamen Rider Buffa's two BerserClaw fingers being snapped after his fight with Kamen Rider Ziin.https://www.kamen-rider-official.com/geats/25/

==Trivia==
*According to the (now-defunct) TV-Asahi website for Kamen Rider Ryuki, just as the Ridesaber being a weaker Sword Vent counterpart to Dragsaber, the Guard Vent Dragshields also has one in the form of , which also scores the same point, 300.https://web.archive.org/web/20161005090355/http://www.tv-asahi.co.jp/ryuki/masked_riders/ryuki/main.html Whether this shield comes in a pair like its successor or a single handheld device is unknown, but presumably it would also perform as terrible as the Ridesaber.
