Being knighted confers upon you the right to own a sword (a holdover from an earlier era). Some knights take this more seriously than others.
When Sir Terry Pratchett was knighted, he dug up his own iron ore, learned to smelt, smelted the ore, added a bit of meteoric iron, learned to forge, and forged himself a Starmetal sword.
Just how cool can one person get?
