Broadsword
Broadswords appeared in a variety of forms, but generally had a long, wide, straight, double-edged blade with a simple cross-guard (or "cruciform" hilt). The typical form was a single hand weapon used for hacking, shearing cuts and also for limited thrusting which evolved from the Mendev swords of late antiquity. Over time, the sword became more tapered and rigid, to facilitate thrusting, and began to add a series of protective rings to the hilt, to defend the fingers and hand. The blade length started to grow giving birth to the "Claymore" or "Greatsword" of today that are very often used by crusaders near the Worldwound.
