According to a Gurian local-history account (repeated in Georgian Wikipedia from a 2017 blog post), an აზნაური of ჯვარცხმა, named there as ყარსუმ (?) ბერიძე, took part in the 1841 Gurian uprising (გურიის აჯანყება) and, in the fight near გრიგოლეთი against the Dadiani (Mingrelian) militia, captured a sword inscribed as a gift from King ერეკლე II to Dadiani; the sword is said to have remained with the Beridze family for about a century. The episode is not documented in any archival or academic source we could find, and even the source marks the first name as uncertain.

One anonymous 2017 blog, which itself writes „ვინმე ყარსუმ (?) ბერიძემ". The sword is a real museum object; its Beridze provenance is the tale.
