Trivia
This episode was written in an effort to more fully integrate the character of Worf into the Deep Space Nine world. All of the fourth season episodes to that date, with the exception of The Way of the Warrior (1995), had been green-lit prior to the confirmation of Michael Dorn's arrival, and as such, Worf tended to be confined to the B-stories of these episodes, if he even figured in them at all. "The Sword of Kahless" was the first show put together after Worf joined the cast, and as such, the producers felt it should focus on him.

Goofs
When the Lethean attacks Kor, as he removes his hands from Kor's head the Klingon cranial prosthetic moves, shifting position on the actor's forehead.

Quotes
Lt. Commander Jadzia Dax: Kor! I have someone I'd like you to meet.
Kor: Oh?
Lt. Commander Jadzia Dax: I'd like you to meet our Strategic Operations Officer, Commander Worf.
Kor: Ah, Worf the traitor. The pariah. The lowest of the low!
[long tense pause, then his face turns into a smile]
Kor: It's a pleasure to meet you.

Boring, ultimately pointless fetch quest

So the sword of Kahless is apparently a powerful lost artifact to the Klingons, so Wharf and Some old drunk Klingon guy and Dax go to find it. Pointlessness ensues. Worth skipping.
