The so-called Glastonbury sword is an amulet that is widespread in the esoteric scene . According to the manufacturer, it should protect its wearer from harm and stand as a symbol of success and strength .

These charms are generally in the casting process from pewter (engl. Pewter = tin - copper - antimony - alloy ) is manufactured as a mass product.

A historical background to this sword is not proven. The name Glastonbury sword is probably inspired by the myths about the hill Glastonbury Tor , but this amulet cannot be proven with archaeological finds from Glastonbury or the surrounding area.
