First of all i'd like to acknowledge all those who have made theories on whether "Rayleigh" was the previous "world's strongest swordsman" before Mihawk took the title. [ Soz, but i can't remember your names ] . But i wish to provide some proof that he truly was.

-------------------------------------
First of all, he was the Pirate Kings 1st mate so he was bound to be heaps strong [ duhh ]. Now remember Rayleigh from the Roger v Shiki flashback in the past?

[ Look carefully, at Rayleigh's sword. Particularly its handle. ]

Doesn't it remind you alot of Shanks sword? :p

Then we see at different timings Rayleigh using multiple different swords indicating to me, that he is very skilled and can adapt well to swords making him the previous "worlds strongest swordsman".

It so obvious that is not Rayleigh's sword, so no the title.

However, it's possible that he could have been the former WSS, but why hasn't anyone mentioned it? Surely, Kizaru of all people would have used it as a taunt against him.

Mihawk being the 'world's strongest swordsmen' simply because he wields the 'world's strongest sword' is a better theory than this; and that itself is a pretty retarded theory. :|

probably they use whatever sword they have ..... it's not like they are swordsmen, they are simply haki beasts.

so quality of sword doesn't matter ...... that's what i think.

the two swords are clearly different in design

The OP is finished. Let's just leave it at that.

The fact that Shanks can fight on par with Hawk Eyes in a battle of Swords proves that Shanks is pretty good with Sword...!

and Iam Sure Rayleigh is one of the best out there

:hint:

It's not the same sword, though I wish something like that did happen.
