THE LEGEND OF BIGFOOT
Bigfoot is known by many titles with many different cultures although the name Bigfoot is generally attributed to the mountainous Western region of North America. The common name Sasquatch comes from the Salish Sasquits, while the Algonquin of the north-central region of the continent refer to a Witiko or Wendigo. Other nations tell of a large creature much like a man but imbued with special powers and characteristics. The Ojibway of the Northern Plains believed the Rugaru appeared in times of danger and other nations agreed that the hairy apparition was a messenger of warning, telling man to change his ways.

A blade length typically ranges from around 30 centimeters (12 in) to 90 centimeters (36 in), but occasionally, much longer blades have been wielded.

The Sword In The Stone
The legend of the Sword in the Stone, entwined with the illustrious tale of King Arthur, has captivated the collective imagination for centuries, establishing itself as one of the most iconic British legends. Passed down through the annals of time via a plethora of literary works crafted by various authors and poets, this Arthurian saga revolves around a sword firmly embedded in a stone—an artifact believed by some to be the legendary Excalibur.
