What happened to Heimdall's sword?

Question

Heimdall's sword Hofund is reported as "made by the Dwarf smiths of Nidavellir". It seems like it is also the "Thanos-killing kind". I was wondering why Thor didn't use it against Thanos (instead of the long process of forging a new weapon), but the link says:

After having escaped Asgard's destruction, Hofund was physically broken during the subsequent massacre by Thanos.

I don't recall seeing this, so maybe someone can help pinpoint what this is referring to.

Answer

Hofund was indeed broken in the battle, we see this when Heimdall sends Hulk back to Earth by summoning the Bifrost.

Heimdall sends Hulk back to Earth

That is the last we see of the sword and then the ship is blown up using the Power Stone by Thanos. Therefore, it is quite likely that the sword was broken up further but we don't see it again to know for sure.
