Historically speaking, anyone that used a sword, curved or not, was considered a huge dork and was often talked about behind their back (negatively of course)

It would suck to be killed with a sword, seemingly to an equal degree regardless of its level of curvature? Imho anyway I'm not a expert

sebmojo posted:It would suck to be killed with a sword, seemingly to an equal degree regardless of its level of curvature? Imho anyway I'm not a expert hmm idk, you'd want to be hit by the curved sword, not the straight sword the curved sword will be a cleaner cut, less blunt force, and unlikely to pierce and drag organs through one another a curved sword fees the user's momentum to continue forward through the strike, mitigating inertia (for both attacker and victim). it's for attacking on the go. the straight sword is for stabbing and/or killing. theres a reason the romans used otherwise-inferior stabby swords -- the people stabbed by them eventually died, almost always. probably slowly. all things considered you would 100% want to get hit by a scimitar, not skewered on a rapier thank you for coming to my ded talk

though falx > all the only weapon so dangerous that the romans changed their soldiers' kit to defend against it it would be appropriate to say: birds' beak swords are better than curved swords

fun fact: most peasant rebellions and successful anti-imperial hegemonies ended up winning battles against heavy armored opponents by virtue of weapons that reached AROUND shields i.e. the falx. the peasant flail. the longbow. the goedendag. the peasant flail in particular is very easy to make. take a long stick and short stick. string em together like nunchucks. hit people with the short stick, dramatically sped up by the large stick. this short stick goes arrrrround someone's shield to smack them in the back of the head. against an armored opponent ->> curve forward against an unarmored slave and/or 18th century US marine 4000 miles from home ->> curve backward against a rebellion or otherwise finite army that cannot resupply ->> straight swords / death by sepsis and infection but who the gently caress wouldn't want to use a polearm instead theres a reason pikes took over swords are loving stupid PICTURED: SWORDS VS SENSIBLE PEOPLE USING POLEARMS

what i dont understand is why the khopesh fell out of use it seems to be the best of both words: sword and axe i guess the curve is way too pronounced and it breaks easy or something maybe its really hard to make idk

agreed that curved sword users are as good as dog food against the guys with trees and that weapon King Trident from the Little Mermaid uses but a single rogue mercenary armed with a dragon slayer sword? he would have knocked away the whole formation in one blow, and then done a mid-air summersault wth the sword and smashed it into the ground causing the earth to erupt and launch away any who didn't die in the initial attack,

I'm a big fan of the Fiore Axe Sword, which looks like a jrpg sword only it was real.

The ones of those they made have a sword bit that snaps off if you hit something with it, and you have to aim the horribly unbalanced gun by feel because there's a sword in the way of the sights.

I pull the trigger right as I slice you with the blade, critically injuring you and forcing your curvy sword to the ground. while you bleed out, I use the recoil from my shot as momentum to deliver a lethal blow to one of your allies.
