Also, Aragorn's sword at this point is Anduril, the sword that was reforged of the Shards of Narsil. I don't think he would let it go over the falls. <BR>I believe that Boromir had his own sword and he was pledging his loyalty to Aragorn, much as the members of the Fellowship pledged to Frodo at the Council of Elrond "You have my sword....and my bow....and my ax."<BR>And I like the point about the resemblance to the Viking tradition. Very perceptive.
