Norfolk term for old weapon? (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

broadsword

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'old weapon?' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'norfolk term' is the wordplay.
'norfolk' becomes 'broads' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'term' becomes 'word' (I've seen this before).
'broads'+'word'='BROADSWORD'

'for' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for broadsword that I've seen before include "means of attack" , "cutting weapon" , "Wide-bladed weapon" , "cutter" , "old weapon" .)
