Medieval Swords
Medieval swords were essential weapons from the 5th to the 15th century, evolving alongside advancements in armor and warfare. They varied in design based on their intended use, from single-handed arming swords to large two-handed greatswords. Medieval swords were used in knight duels, battlefield skirmishes, and sieges. Early swords prioritized cutting power, but as armor improved, swords adapted with narrower points for thrusting.
