Sir Bedevere.
King Arthur ordered Sir Bedivere to throw the sword into the lake.
King Arthur's sword Excalibur was thrown back into the lake by Sir Bedivere as Arthur lay dying. Dozmary Pool on Bodmin Moor in Cornwall is supposedly the lake from which the sword came and to which it was returned.
Because King Arthur told him to do so.. and because King Arthur told him that the sword was given to him by the lady of the lake so now it's time to return it back to her.
King Arthur's sword is named Excalibur.
