Sword

Also known as: 剑, 剣, 大刀, 刀剣, グレートソード, 大剣, 女剣士, 刀剑

A bladed Weapon designed for cutting or thrusting. They are typically composed of a hilt and a blade with one or two edges that can be straight or curved; most, but not all, swords have a pointed tip. The hilt, in turn, consists of a guard, a grip, and in most designs a pommel. The guard can be a crossguard like in a typical knight's sword, a disc like the Tsuba (Guard) of a Katana, or some more complex design.

It is a weapon strongly associated with elite warriors such as Knights and Samurai.
