All of you know at least one, whether its Excalibur, Ragnarok, or any other, so i want to know all those known weapons you've heard or seen from actual legends or anime, and if possible where they came from and who used it.

Gram – Sword of the hero Sigurd from Norse mythology, also known as Nothung in the Ring cycle

aww i was gonna say that one... i bet you didnt know it originally belonged to his father Sigmund, who was killed by Odin. and that the Gram is the only sword (in its legend) that can kill a dragon. thats my fave myth, cuz after killing the dragon with the almight sword, he bathes in and drinks the blood of the dragon to become immortal ^_^. i wish i could do that

As much as I respect the Marines, I'm going to have to disagree with you on that one for obvious reasons.
