Here's a little something about the Noble Phantasm that Saber has. No this will not go into five kinds of tl;dr like you might see on Gil's, since I don't bother that much.

First of is INVISIBLE AIR! Now this is more like a spell than a Noble Phantasm but it's never really brought up so whatever. This is the thing that hides her sword from sight. it does this by screwing with the air around it to make light not shine on it or something, I never understood it in the first place. Due to the fact it's not really invisible, just hidden in an odd way, it can be seen if you think it could be seen in a special way. Main purpose is to hide the swords indentity but also doubles for hiding how long it is.

Next is the sword itself; EXCALIBUR. The sword so damn famous that anyone and their mother would know who Saber is after seeing it or hearing it's name, and that's bad in F/SN. It is the strongest Holy Sword of mankind and it shows, being... well, damned strong, although it takes a large toll on Saber's magical energy. It's appearance is that of a golden sword, really pretty like. The only other weapon that can beat it in pure power is Gilgamesh's Enuma Elish, which we see... like 7 times.

Lastly we have AVALON, the lost sheath to Excalibur! Just merely having this will grant near immortality, as it will heal wounds, aka regenetive stimulation, whatever that means. I take it to mean that as long you don't die instantly or will die in the next ten seconds, you're home clear. Also stops the bearer from aging, which is how Saber managed to rule as King for 10 or so years looking exactly the same. When actually used it encases Saber in some sort of field, which basically renders her invulnerable. Completely. Invulnerable.

Yes, only three. She doesn't have a whole entire storage full of things, or can copy anything either, damn Archers.
