My favorite legend is about "Excalibur Sword"
Excalibur is the mythical sword of King Arthur, sometimes
attributed with magical powers or associated with the rightful
sovereignty of Great Britain. Sometimes Excalibur and the Sword
in the Stone (the proof of Arthur's lineage) are said to be the same
weapon, but in most versions they are considered separate. The
sword was associated with the Arthurian legend very early; in
Welsh, the sword was called Caledfwlch. In surviving accounts of
Arthur, there are two originally separate legends about the sword's
origin. The first is the "Sword in the Stone" legend. The second
comes from the later Post-Vulgate Suite du Merlin, which was
taken up by Sir Thomas Malory. Here, Arthur receives Excalibur
from the Lady of the Lake after breaking his first sword, called
Caliburn, in a fight with King Pellinore. The Lady of the Lake
calls the sword "Excalibur".
