Griswold's Edge is a Unique Sword from Diablo I that is given by Griswold by completing the Anvil of Fury quest.
It can be regarded as one of the most powerful unique swords in Diablo I (Normal difficulty), due to its many qualities. There are two potential downfalls to this sword, however; one being the penalty to Life, which can be especially hard upon a Sorcerer if he so chooses to use it. Additionally, its Knockback quality, while helpful against strong foes, is more of a hindrance than an aid against ranged attackers unless backed into a corner.
