Weapons in Sonic and the Black Knight



These are the swords that you can wield and make in the game. They are weapons exclusive to the characters.

Clarent
"It’s a little rusty but it looks kind of like a well known sword…"

- Description in the Treasury

This is the first sword that Sonic uses in his tutorial missions Reach the Misty Lake and Retrieve the Sacred Sword. He will stop using it once you select the third mission of the game. Both missions taking place in Misty Lake. It is a rusty old sword that Sonic practices with. Though unnamed during the missions, it is identified in the Treasury as the Clarent.

It is based on a sword mentioned in the 4346-line Middle English alliterative poem Alliterative Morte Arthure. It was a sword used in knighting ceremonies yet stolen by Mordred, with which Arthur receives his fatal blow.

Caliburn
Caliburn is a talking weapon used by Sonic the Hedgehog throughout most of the game Sonic and the Black Knight. He is voiced by Casey Robertson in the English version and by Hiroaki Hirata in the Japanese version. In the English version, he acts like a proper and polite gentleman, which initially clashes with Sonic's easy-going attitude. He is also shown to be a bit of a strict teacher, usually calling a Sonic a fool when he does something that Caliburn disapproves of.

Excalibur
Effectively a super transformation of Caliburn, Excalibur is the strongest of the Sacred Swords.

Arondight
"Lancelot’s sword: its blade is said to never lose its edge."

- Description in the Treasury

Arondight is Sir Lancelot's sword in Sonic and the Black Knight. This is the first sword that you collect in the adventure mode of the game.

Galatine
"The dual swords wielded by Gawain: praised for sharpness."

- Description in the Treasury

Galatine are Gawain's twin swords. The Galatine swords are deep red with a bright outer blade. The Galatine's being two swords is to complement Knuckles'/Gawain's close-quarters combat style.

Galatine is/are sometimes reffered to as the Sword(s) of the Sun, as Gawain is the Knight of the Sun.
