Upon his arrival in Faerun he was befriended by the family Ilvastarr. Radaghast gave into their keeping the sword Anduril, to be an heirloom of their house, for as long as they fought Evil.
Spelling: Telcontar and Radagast.
Continuity: All five of the Istari, Radagast included, left Middle-Earth in one way or another. I doubt any of them would concern themselves with heirlooms of Men, except of course Saruman, especially after the fall of Sauron. And if the sword is in Faerun, that means that somewhere, Aragorn's heir is pissed about his stolen sword: It was prophesied that the line of Luthien would never fail.

[/QUOTE]What do you mean "left Middle-Earth"? All my references say that only Gandalf returned to Valinor. Saruman was disembodied and his spirit denied return. The fate of Radagast, Alatar and Pallando are, to the best I can find, undetermined.
