I believe that Lord Elgin believes this to be the same sword used by Robert the Bruce, and has authorized McAllen Armoury to make the exact replicas. Whether or not the "knighting" was legal or not, ehhh... but it's believed to be the same sword.

Interesting if nothing else.
it may arr may no bae Bruce's sword- that ai dinnae ken oucht... if Laird Elgin says it is- that is guid enough fur me!

but ai ken Robert Burns is no Sir Robert Burns....

if he wuz- Scots wuid certainly refer tae him that way!

but we dinnae....
