Exegesis
This instrument is further specified by the genitive tou kathēmenou epi tou hippou {τοῦ καθημένου ἐπὶ τοῦ ἵππου | toû kathēménou epí tou híppou}, linking the sword to the rider on the horse.
The dative participle tē exelthousē ek tou stomatos autou {τῇ ἐξελθούσῃ ἐκ τοῦ στόματος αὐτοῦ | tē exelthoúsē ek tou stómatos autoû} adjectivally describes the sword as coming from His mouth, symbolizing the power of His spoken word.
In context — Revelation 19:21
And the rest were killed with the sword of the One sitting upon the horse, the sword proceeding from His mouth, and all the birds were filled with their flesh.
