    I'm partial to Ulfberht swords because I love that we still don't know who or what Ulfberht was but their name is on like all the good swords for a hundred years.

    Yeah, from what I understand urine was not an uncommon quenchant, so I'd imagine there'd be a whole lot of them

    Do you think anyone ever made a cool sword with little poison ducts in it but they just sometimes filled it with urine instead so the other person would get wee on their face when they blocked an attack

    Half of my sword is coated in the deadliest poison known to man, the other half... my own micturation

    What's the sword from Malazan that steals your soul and chains it to a gigantic wagon that you then have to pull through darkness for all eternity? I like that one.

    I like Durandal, because of video games.
    Durandan, Durandal, Durandana.

    Charlemagne used to always call me
    Durandana, the fruitcake. All the many
    implements of war to him were in some way
    feminine. Not that you know the story.

    Tycho never got it right either, especially
    the part about Roland breaking me. He
    couldn't.

    No one can.

    Claiomh Solais, the Sword of Light, one of the Four Treasures of the Tuatha de Danann in what would become Ireland, possession of the war god Nuada.

    Once drawn no battle could be made against its wielder nor could anyone escape their blows

    There are some designs of light sabers in the Napoleonic war that were outlawed due to the cut it left being considered extremely cruel to people who lived since they were very hard to stitch closed and heal.

    For the record All-Black was forged out of primordial darkness in the severed head of a celestial god using the heat of a newborn sun as its furnace

    Also it led to Venom

    Its a pretty good sword
