Non-sharp but faithful replica of the legendary sword taken out of the rock by King Arthur.
The story of King Arthur is intimately linked to the magic and mysterious sword Excalibur, whose name means "Cut Steel", which was one of its many properties. It has also been said that the Excalibur sheath has the ability to protect anyone who wears it, preventing it from being damaged or injured.
There are several legends about how Arthur got this mythical sword; there are two versions that stand out from the others: the first speaks of Excalibur as the sword drawn from a rock by Arthur, and the second, as the sword entrusted to the young king by the Lady of the Lake.
In the first version, which tells of Geoffrey of Monmouth, it is said that the death of King Uther Pendragon, Merlin forged on the Isle of Avalon powerful Excalibur sword and buried on a steel anvil on a rock near the Cathedral of Saint - Paul; who could draw the sword from his bed, would be the legitimate king of England. When Arthur reaches the age of sixteen, his father takes him with his brothers to London to take part in a fight between knights. As he searched for a sword for his brother Kay, Arthur stood firmly at Excalibur, and as he lifted it, the blade gently slid. And so, immediately, he was crowned king.
