Three Flamberge examples

Flamberge (also Floberge, Froberge, and other variations) is a medieval sword. Swung by a number of heroes of chansons de geste and romances, the name became a generic name for a large sword.[1]

In earlier texts, the name is usually given as "floberge" or "froberge" (Italian: Fusberta or Frusberta), but the name developed under the influence of the word "flamber". Swords by that name are wielded by Renaud de Montauban (and his cousin Maugris) in The Four Sons of Aymon (12th century); Antenor in the Roman de Troie (12th century); Begon, the brother of the eponymous hero of Garin le Loherain (12th century); and the hero of Galien le Restoré (15th century).[1]

In early 20th century works, swords of the name were wielded by Dom Manuel of James Branch Cabell's Biography of the Life of Manuel[2] and by Prince Valiant.[3][4]
