MARTO SWORD 514
EXCALIBER 514
In Welsh legend, Arthur's sword is known as Caledfwlch. In Culhwch and Olwen, it is one of Arthur's most valuable possessions and is used by Arthur's warrior Llenlleawg the Irishman to kill the Irish king Diwrnach while stealing his magical cauldron (Irish mythology mentions a weapon Caladbolg, the sword of Fergus mac Roich. Caladbolg was also known for its incredible power and was carried by some of Ireland's greatest heroes. The name, which can also mean "hard cleft" in Irish, appears in the plural, caladbuilc, as a generic term for "great swords" in the 10th century Irish translation of the classical tale The Destruction of Troy, Togail Troi [11][12]).
Though not named as Caledfwlch, Arthur's sword is described vividly in The Dream of Rhonabwy one of the tales associated with the Mabinogion: Then they heard Cadwr Earl of Cornwall being summoned, and saw him rise with Arthur's sword in his hand, with a design of two chimeras on the golden hilt; when the sword was unsheathed what was seen from the mouths of the two chimeras was like two flames of fire, so dreadful that it was not easy for anyone to look. At that the host settled and the commotion subsided, and the earl returned to his tent.

MARTO SWORD 503
CARLOMAGNO SWORD 503
A copy of the sword of the King of the Franks and Emperor of Western Europe, Charlemagne, born in 742 or 747m.Ch. and became known for his efforts to protect the Franks from the barbarians who lived in Germany, in the Rhine region. The boundless ambition, sometimes excessive, to impart Christianity in Germany, France, Italy and other parts of Europe, with aggressive tactics, made him the founder of Holy European Empire, comes to fill the gap after the Roman Empire in Europe and reach out to our days differently. He was wise and versatile statesman and strategist. He died in 814 AD and was buried in his own cathedral at Aachen.
The original sword is now in the Louvre. The copy of Marto is a sword with a blade made of forged steel and gold plated cross handle with performances.
