It is important that when you show something such as a sword, a dagger, or a gun, that it should be used by the end of the novel to kill or protect someone. Even a noose can be a foreshadowing implement. Make sure that if something happens at the end of a novel, a way out of a dangerous situation, or someone dying, that you have foreshadowed the incident earlier in the novel.
If you haven't, this is the time to make sure that you make a note of the incident, or item, and where it should appear at first. Be subtle, and believable, but make sure that it is mentioned once or twice during the course of your novel.
