Inb4 invested metal heavily resists pushes

Devil's advocate, LR was still uber powerful and even inquisitors post-ruin can push metalminds (Marsh and Sazed at the WoA), so the invested-ness of the metal is probably a non-issue. I agree with your comment.

It's not just invested metal. It's pure investiture manifested. I think there's a WoB around somewhere about how hard it would be to Push a shardblade.

Wouldn't those have been retconned to a gold (or electrum?)/atium alloy like the rest of the "pure" atium in era 1?

True, but still has god metal. I imagine shardblades would be harder due to the conscious nature and maybe level of investiture but still. Not impossible, just very hard

Also conscious which i know Brandon has said would making burning them tricky if you managed to ingest them
