Anderson's Swords
The blessed blades Alexander Anderson carries into battle.
Anderson's Swords are the blessed blades wielded by Alexander Anderson, a paladin of Iscariot and the trump card it holds against Alucard. His arsenal is made up of scores of blessed bayonets, presumably made of silver, along with smaller blades. These weapons serve as the primary physical manifestation of the Vatican's war against the undead.

Reader's Guide
He does not rely on finesse but rather on overwhelming force and speed, often holding multiple blades in each hand or even between his fingers to strike simultaneously from all directions. Effectively using these swords requires immense physical strength and stamina, as Anderson must swing dozens of heavy blades with blinding speed while maintaining the spiritual focus required to keep their holy properties active.
