So, you doubt the truth of the ancient Welsh, Galician and Breton royal annals?

That's the real question here ~ not whether or not Arthur actually had a shiny sword that could cut other swords into pieces.

And where did you get the idea Arthur had Jeanne's swords. I don't think anyone ever said that. Besides, there are numerous "ancient swords".

Uh....FRiend, from your earlier post. I read it incorrectly now, didn’t I. Oops.

“King Arthur had a famous sword and Joanne d’Arc found some ancient swords hidden behind the fireplace of an old building ~ they were considered rather impressive.

I know some swords made out of weaker materials did/do break. That’s actually why I have admired Damascene steel. And Samurai swords/kitanas.

I don’t know if Arthur had such a sword, but it’s possible. If someone had a sword that sharp and strong, he would have been formidable. Same for a knife today. No?
