Description: The broadbill swordfish, Xiphias gladius, is a member of the class of bony fish, Osteichthyes. The swordfish gets its name from its most distinctive feature -- the elongated upper jaw that looks like a sword. The swordfish's sword is so impressive that Christopher Columbus brought one back with him as a souvenir of the New World.
