I thought he recognised it from one of the Heros of the Horn in tGH.
But I hadn't thought of the glass columns in Rhuidean. That makes a little more sense.
The other very remote possibly is that he read about it or saw it when he was researching the prophecies of the dragon. An illustration of Lews Therin maybe?

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

I couldn't say which of the scenes it would be, but it's the only place I could imagine it being

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.
