the sword of Aegus was the sword which Theseus used to kill the minotaur in ancient Greek mythology. It was named after his father; Theseus, who threw himself into the sea, believing that his son was dead.
The largest diamond ever found fits into the palm of a grown man's hands. That is not large enough to fabricate a sword of any substance. A sword useful as a weapon would be more useful made from metal. A sword made from diamonds could only be symbolic, because it would be so tiny.

The Hebrew Bible includes the Destroyer (ha-mashḥit) who at the Passover in Exodus killed the firstborn of Egypt. Later a "destroying angel" (mal'ak ha-mashḥit) kills many of the inhabitants of Jerusalem in 2 Samuel 24:15. While in the parallel passage in I Chronicles 21:15 the same "angel of the Lord" is seen by David to stand "between the earth and the heaven, with a drawn sword in his hand stretched out against Jerusalem." Later the angel of the Lord kills 185,000 men of Sennacherib's Assyrian army, thereby saving Hezekiah's Jerusalem in II 19:35. A different term for "destroyer" (memitim) is found in Job 33:22.[

She doesn't want Aegeus to recognize his son, Theseus, because Aegeus would then reinstate Theseus's position as heir and he would inherit the throne of Athens after Aegeus dies. Medea wants her own son, Medus, to rule Athens after Aegeus dies - she wants to remove Theseus so that this can happen.
