Quel'Zaram, High Blade of the Lion was one of two known weapons wielded by Anduin Lothar (the other was the Great Royal Sword).

In the RPG

This section contains information from the Warcraft RPG which is considered non-canon.

Lothar discovered this weapon on his youthful adventures with Llane Wrynn and Medivh. The sword impressed Medivh and he dubbed it Quel'Zaram - Thalassian for "high blade". The weapon's current whereabouts are unknown. This greatsword draws out the inner strength of the wielder, which manifests as a swirling golden glow about the blade.

Quel'Serrar

It may be possible that the Quel'Zaram has something to do/refers to  [Quel'Serrar], which is also called "The High Blade". The Quel'Serrar has a "Chance on hit: When active, grants the wielder 20 defense rating and 300 armor for 10 sec" which might be, what "This greatsword draws out the inner strength of the wielder, which manifests as a swirling golden glow about the blade" refers to. Also, the hilt of Quel'Zaram (pictured above) looks very similar to that of Quel'Serrar.

Some speculate that "Quel'Serrar" may be the original Darnassian word for "The High Blade" (Since the quest originates and ends in Dire Maul, an old Night Elven city), while "Quel'Zaram" is the Thalassian translation of the phrase. However, the two swords are not one and the same.
