Well Arthur is the most popular choice, and he weilds a holy sword. In history there have been swords that are compareable in power to Excalibur but it depends on Nasu.

My first bet would have been on Roland but since Nasu fucked him up by making Durandal's prototype Hectors weapon (Which makes no sense since hector was not much of a spear user more of an Archer and chariot racer). Since Durandal was the sharpest sword in existance and given to Chalemange by Angels I thought Nasu might do something interesting with him but I guess not.

My Second Guess is the weilder of Shamshir which is basically Islamic Excalibur and is a Saber in appearence too. But the thing is there isn't enough Legendary weight around it.

My Third Guess would have been Cu and Clamoih Solaris but Cu is more famous for being a lancer so I doubt it.

I guess my last choice could be Levatain, a Nordic weapon of unknown form or power however nobody has ever used it in history so I think Nasu might do something clever and make the servant and weapon one in the same but who knows at this point.

Grand Saber is an odd one in general. I even considered Masamune since he is a smith of swords he would know of their nature better than any other servant. But to really find a swordsman of value that could compare to grand saber is difficult in general as most obvious choices are already in the game. However Gil could make a pretty strong Saber too so its anyones guess really.
