Well we can't really argue about the progression of weaponry in the War of Power. I just find it a little absurd to think that Lews Therin and the male Forsaken had personal swords which they carried around. They were from a very advanced race, and just because swords changed from a benign to a deadly sport doesn't mean anything about Lews Therin's personal weaponry. If anything, Be'lal was referring to the Collapse when deadly sport became a norm.
United States Marine Officers wear swords with their dress uniform. I think it is fair to say the US military technology has advanced to beyond the point where they would actually use the swords in combat, yet they are still a part of the uniform. It could be something akin to that as well.

You're saying everything must be either literal or metaphoric?

Maybe I'm stupid, but why would Hawkwing have been using Lews Therin's sword?

Wouldn't Lews Therin's sword be buried under Dragonmount? And didn't Rand say it was his own memory?
