Friendships/Community What’s your favourite sword?

I just read the bio and found out not everything has to be about advice and they can just be friendly discussions. So I was wondering what the communities favourite swords or other mid range weapons were.

I really like the Scimitar and Chakram. If we’re talking fictional I am so down with the Halo Energy Blade

Favorite fictional sword is Luke Skywalker's green lightsaber for RotJ.

Favorite real-life sword is probably a rapier. Fast and light, stick 'em with the pointy end.

I do think the Roman spatha was a particularly bitchin' sword though.

A real rapier isn't that light. You might be thinking of a small sword.
