Some wizards have protections against non-Morganti blades.

[QUOTE=Sharpandpointies;5334182]Someone has been studying with a former Jhereg assassin. :)
Spellbreaker was for sure a good example.[/QUOTE]
Spellbreaker is now a part of Godslayer, which is also an Anti-Magic Weapon [url]https://dragaera.fandom.com/wiki/Godslayer[/url]

Unfortunately I do not remember, but I think you might be right.

Sadly, I lost interest in the series after the focus shifted (about what, four books in?). Read a few more, then a more recent one, and saw the bit about Lady Teldra.
From the Book of Swords series:
Doomgiver reflects magic back
Shieldbreaker nullifies magic and has never failed in doing so.

Those are both excellent, but as swords go, the one Nik mentioned above negates on a planetary scale I think, and the Otataral swords (there are two mentioned) from Malazan block everything over at least the size of a battlefield where a couple of armies a hundred thousand strong are fighting (figure at [I]least[/I] 50 or so square miles).

To be fair, I'm not sure the sword form of Asuna's pactio blade can do full planetary on its own. That's more her body than the blade itself.
The sword version just cuts through everything and, I think can flatly erase armies of magical beings and stunlock multiple magicians who are threats to entire countries in raw power.
I've not looked at Negima in a while though, been far too taken with its sequel series to go back.
Not a weapon as such but The Ghostbusters Gear is pretty effective versus magic as I recall and Bink from the first couple of Xanth books was immune from magical harm as I recall.
Bink was pretty broken, yep.

UQ Holder is (a) sequel to Negima and actually covers what happens post-school years in a prologue. A lot of interesting stuff in it, but the latest arc, depending on the direction it goes, may turn me off from the series.

I've read Negima?
I'm also up to date on UQ Holder. I'm not sure what your point is here.
Doesn't Hawkgirl's mace disrupt magic because of the Nth metal?
Not sure of the limits of what spells it can break, but it seems comparable to Magik's sword.
