I?m not sure what you mean by G?ring having ?several??Several what?

Yes it?s true that G?ring had a penchant for edged weapons. Being a hunter, he had many exquisite side arms made and was rarely seen without some sort of dagger or sword.

Many of his better known pieces were presented to him by various organizations and as gifts from family, friends and high ranking officials, the most well known of these being the ?Wedding Sword? presented to him by the Luftwaffe on the occasion of his marriage in 1935. Others include the golden sword from Mussolini and the Damascus bladed sword by Paul Mueller, presented to G?ring by the German industrial association in 1938.

The term ?Honour Sword? I think relates to the Lufwaffe swords (Generalsdegan) that G?ring had made for presentation purposes, much in the same way that Himmler presented the SS honour sword to his officers.
