Birth-sword of Carcassonne

At birth, all noble sons in the Dukedom of Carcassonne are made to touch a specially forged blade, their birth-sword, and this weapon hangs above their cots until they reach an age when they can wield it. This mirrors the story of the original duke, Lambard, who was said to have grasped a sword even before suckling at his mother's bosom.
