Kriegschwert

also called Arming Sword

The arming sword (also sometimes called a knight's or knightly sword) is a type of European sword with a single handed cruciform hilt and straight double edged blade of around 69 to 81 centimetres (27 to 32 in), in common use from the 11th to 16th centuries. It is a common weapon in period artwork, and there are many surviving examples in museums.
