Scimitar[edit]

You might want to mention that the sword is considered a type of scimitar. SharkD (talk) 14:39, 14 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

it's sometimes mistakenly labelled a scimitar, yet significantly different: the curve is reversed, and scimitars often have a guard. While both are slashing swords, less suitable for stabbing, I assume their handling is quite different because of this.Weerlicht (talk) 11:08, 4 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
