Swords in general have traditionally and historically been held as instruments of might, justice, honor, integrity and truth. They have been enjoyed for thousands of years, not just as weapons, but also as symbolic instruments that show status. Because swords are so highly emblematic of so many different virtues, they are still used for ceremonial purposes at lots of important events. Many of the values that swords symbolize are at the center of Freemasonry. Masons often show Masonic swords during their ceremonies and rituals.
No one is certain about the specific beginnings of Freemasonry, but it is possible that the group developed out of the stonemasons craft guilds that flourished during the Middle Ages. The Knights Templar was an organization of Christian knights that formed during the Crusades to protect Christians during their pilgrimages to the Holy Land, probably had a significant influence on early Masons. That historical influence almost certainly continues even today. Swords are often associated with the purpose and history of the Knights Templar, and this association would very possibly be
another reason for the symbolic ceremonial importance of Masonic swords in Masonic
rites both past and present.
