A weapon from days gone by that has yet to be equalled for its sheer simplicity and elegance; A thing that at its simplest is a long knife with different rules and expectations as well as some different techniques from standard knife fighting. Also this is a weapon that inspires fear and devotion.
Just ask all the Kendoka and Martial Artists; Check out Kill Bill Vol. 1 and 2. Oh, Yes; Note that the scimitar , a sword originating in the Middle East, was one that was wielded by the Saracens(Ancestors to the present day's population) and wielded "blade to the wind", the right way, to be true...

The ancient Persians had a disconcerting habit of scaring their adversaries by standing in ranks on the battlefield and holding their sword in the air and allowing the wind to be cut as it blew throug their ranks...

Next to the gun, mans best friend in terms of weaponry. It is basically a bladed instrument whose primary funtion is to be used as an offensive weapon. Many cultures produced unique swords. Sword production goes back thousands of years when man first learned to manipulate metals and inproved greatly throughout time. Japanse focused sword creation on impressive katanas with notorious slicing properties. Middle Eastern swords aka scimitars had curved blades for quick strikes and fast combat. Swords from ancient Medderterainia were short and used more for stabbing opponents. Europeans created long heavy swords for brutally smashing, hacking and cleaving enemies.
