Honour Sabre of the Awakened Lion (Chinese: 醒獅勳刀) was an honour sabre of the Republic of China. It was created in 1935 for awarding already-highly decorated officers who are deserving of more commendation. The honour sabre was the highest honour in the military of the Republic of China until its abolishment. As it was never awarded since its creation, the honour was abolished by the Executive Yuan on October 19, 2017.^[1]
