Pippin:
As long as Dumbledore is alive, the sword is safest in his office. Harry hasn't got the means to protect it, as we saw. Dumbledore never meant to convey the sword itself to Harry by means of his will. As Scrimgeour says, it's not legally Dumbledore's and the Ministry would not allow Harry to have it, as Dumbledore surely would know.  The will was a backup plan for letting Harry know that he would need the sword without letting anyone else know why. But IMO Harry would have known what it was for already if Dumbledore's plan had worked properly.

Pippin:
Ron has a collection of comic books, most of which feature The Adventures of Marvin Miggs, the Mad Muggle. (CoS ch 3).
