  • Broadsword - A broadsword is a type of medieval European sword with a wide blade and a cruciform hilt with a grip for two-handed use. These swords were typically used by infantry in battle and were designed for cutting and hacking as well as thrusting. They were popular during the late medieval and early modern period and were used by both cavalry and infantry soldiers. The term "broadsword" is also used to refer to any sword with a wide blade, regardless of the specific time period or culture in which it was used.
