Two-Handed Sword of the State Guard of Julius of Brunswick-Lunüneburg
1574
The sheer size of this sword is both awe-inspiring and intimidating, but the highly ornate engraved details indicate that it wasn't used in battle. Imagine your security system being a guard wielding a blade similar to this one.
