I knew there were others (here, at tor.com) that thought it could be Hawking's sword. I just looked at the prophecy on a whim after finding nothing much of it's description in TGH, and was quite surprised to see Justice in there. And that Rand was carrying it in the prophecy!
Makes you think if there is anything else in the prophecies we assumed wasn't important.

Yeah, good work. I didn't mean the above as an accusation; I was more excited that my theory wasn't as crazy as I might have thought at first.

That was my first thought too, though I can't think where the Aiel would encounter it *NM*

I assumed he remembered it because it was Lews Therin's *NM*

But he specifically says that it is from his memories and not Lews Therin's *NM*

Was it just the scabbard or a new sword too? *NM*

Good question, I'm not sure, tho if I had to guess I'd say just the scabbard *NM*

So think the scabbard is an angreal/ter'angreal? *NM*

I'd bet it's answered in the prologue.

My thoughts exactly. The sword is the only part that makes sense as coming from the Prologue. *NM*

Hmmm... not Rhuidean - I'm betting the farm on it being Guaire Amalasan's scabbard

It's in the Prophecy. Hawking's sword Justice.

I like that a lot. Seems the most likely out of all of these, too.

I think you might be correct.

I thought the great sword means it is a very long two-handed sword.
