You recall the important errand I had mentioned? Word had got back to me that a certain artifact I thought had been lost forever resurfaced. And now it's mine. Beautiful, isn't it? Oh, yes. The only known weapon capable of destroying an archangel -- the archangel blade.
Weapon Properties
One of the few weapons in existence with the capability to kill an archangel, but only when wielded by an archangel. Like a standard angel blade, the archangel blade is a small dagger like weapon, but differentiates with the blade being made of a golden material and having a twisting tri-blade design, with etchings engraved down each side of the blade.
Episodes

After casting a blood spell on Gabriel to bind him to her, Kali takes what she believes to be Gabriel's blade and stabs him with it, killing him. However, this is merely a trick on Gabriel's part as he is still alive and hiding in the Impala, having given her a fake he had "made out of a can of diet orange Slice." Despite the trick, he does confirm that the blade of an archangel can kill him and Lucifer. Gabriel confronts his brother with the blade to buy Sam and Dean time to escape the Elysian Fields Hotel with Kali, but is himself killed when Lucifer turns it on him.
