RasulAllah (SalAllahu alehay wassalam), had nine swords. He inherited Ma'thur from his father, and it was the first sword he ever owned.
He also possessed al-'Idhb and Dhul-Fiqhar or Dhul-Faqhar, which did not leave his sight. Dhul-Fiqar had a hilt, circular guard, tuft, buckles and a base made of silver.
He also had al-Qhal'ii, al-Battar, al-'Hatf, ar-Raub, al-Mukh-dham and al-Qhadheeb, which had a base made of silver and silver circular hand guards.
RasulAllah (SalAllahu alehay wassalam), acquired Dhul-Fiqar during the battle of Badr, and saw a dream about it; when he entered Makkah during al-Fath', his sword was beautified with gold and silver.

Re: Swords of RasulAllah (SalAllahu alehay wassalam)
The Prophet, (salAllahu alehay wassalam), had seven pieces of armour: Dhatul-Fudhul, which he later on pawned with Abu ash-Sha'hm, a Jew, in return for some barley, thirty Sa' (weights pertaining to foodstuff) for his family.The debt was for a year. Dhatul-Fudhul was made of iron. The Prophet, upon whom be peace, also had Dhatul-Wisha'h, Dhatul-'Hawashi, as-Sa'diyyah, Fidh-dhah, al-Batraa and al-Khirniqh.
...
The Prophet, peace be upon him, owned six bows, az-Zauraa, ar-Rau'haa, as-Safraa, al-Baidhaa, as-Saddad and al-Katum, which was broke during the battle of 'Uhud. Qatadah ibn an-Nu'man (radiyallahu anhu) took al-Katum.
...
The Prophet, (salAllahu alehay wassalam), had a quiver called, al-Kaafur, and a strap (belt quiver) for it made from tanned skin, as well as, three silver circular rings, a buckle and an edge made of silver. We should state that Ibn Taymiyyah, Shaykh ul-Islam, said that there are no authentic narrations that the Prophet, upon whom be peace, ever wore a strap around his waist.
...
The Prophet, (salAllahu alehay wassalam), had several shields, az-Zaluqh, al-Futaqh and another one that he was given as a gift that had a painting of a statue on. It was said that the Prophet, peace be upon him, placed his hand on the statue and Allah, the Most High, made it fade away.
...
The Prophet, (salAllahu alehay wassalam), owned five spears, such as al-Muthwi and al-Muthni. He had a lance called, an-Nab'ah and a bigger lance called, al-Baidhaa.
He had a short lance like a staff called, 'Anazah, which he held while attending the 'Eid festivals and used to place in front of him when he led the prayer, using it for sutrah. Sometimes, the Prophet, upon whom be peace, walked while holding the 'Anazah.
...
The Prophet, (salAllahu alehay wassalam), had a helmet made of iron, called al-Muwash-sha'h, which was adorned with copper, and another helmet, called as-Sabugh or Dhus-Sabugh.
