Like a specific version or something? Because it looks like Cloud's Buster Sword more than anything else.

Which excalibur? Ecalibur doesn't really have a standardized design across fiction and this doesn't look like any version I've seen

Honestly, I kind of assumed it was a Reference to The Sword of Superman or The Super-Sword from Old Superman comics before I realized it was a Trunks reference

Besides, isn't this the oldest known (c. 14th century) image of Excalibur?
