'''119's "Falchion?, Saber? Actually both of those are longswords." Edges'''

Swords: Falchion has some useful abilities, even if it is not actually a falchion, including self-repair and healing minor wounds at will, but many of Excalibur's abilities are better version of Falchion's. The scabbard makes Arthur immune to exsangination- essentially and upgrade of the healing, and who needs self-repair if your sword is unbreakable!? Not to mention it has that "flashbang" effect when drawn and can cut through steel and stone meaning he might as well have a lightsaber at this point. Edge: Arthur

Lance: Chrom's Gae Bolg lacks the heart-seeking ability of its mythical original, but is magic does increase his defense, presumably making him better able to shrug off wounds and/or making his armor stronger. Ron on the other hand has it's deadly poison, but lacks the "lightsaber" cutting power of Excalibur, making Chrom's armor might be able to stop it. Not to mention Falchion may be able to cure the poison from the wound. For this reason, I give a Slight Edge to Chrom
