SWORD OF JUSTICE
A sword of justice is a ceremonial sword used as insignia of a monarch's supreme judicial
power. In some cases this may have been an executioner's sword that was no longer used for
executions, becoming instead a ceremonial one.
The Crown Jewels of the United Kingdom include two swords of justice: the sharply pointed
Sword of Temporal Justice and the obliquely pointed Sword of Spiritual Justice, whose
characteristics are said to indicate that only temporal courts have power over death. The
current two swords, together with Curtana, the Sword of Mercy, were made for coronation
of Charles I of England, which took place in 1626.
