I had a opportunity to buy a short sword, shaped like a power ranger lighting bolt and didn't. This is one of the only things i regret in my life.
looked something like this, have not been able to find another for sale, instead of the jagged edges being flat, they where slightly rounded and sharpened.
If the side points were rounded out enough it could function as a Kris Dagger. Link- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kris
At least it wouldn't get caught on anything. Also as I have posted my preference goes out to blades that can function as tools such as the axe and machete and I really like the form of the saex and saex-like blades I prefer these over the designs optimised only for fighting and killing other humans.
Alternatlively, the big, totally unrelated brother of the Kris, the Flamberg: But yeah, it was probably a Kris.
actually you can have smaller flambergs, its the shape of the blade that makes it a flamberg/flammenschwert, I agree they are cool.
I used to have some swords, but left with my brother in Canada when I moved to the US because I didn't think I wanted to cross the border with a cache of blades.
then again maybe there is no need for basically can openers on longer sticks if nobody is wearing metal.
