It’s Dawn. The shape of it (note the curvature) matches Dawn’s from what we saw in the Tower of Joy fight, and the star on the pommel is also a giveaway. More than that, Ned killed Dayne with Dawn, at least in the show-verse.
They could be focusing on the sword to highlight the “bleeding star” motif. The sword is forged from the heart of a “fallen star” and by this point would be covered in blood, including Dayne’s blood (his sigil is the falling star, so in prophetic terms, Dayne would be represented as a “star” or as a “fallen star” or “falling star”). It’s also juxtaposed against Lyanna’s blood in the scene.
The idea of Dawn and/or Dayne fitting into the “bleeding star” part of the Azor Ahai prophecy has been around for a while. The red comet was (probably!) a red herring, and this scene (and the fight) could be showing us what it “really” refers to.
