Simply
put the arming sword is a medieval weapon that originated in
Europe and was the standard issue weapon for the medieval knights. Normally the knight sword was used with a buckler or a
shield of some sort, but it can also be used without (as you will
soon see in this nice little clip I found on Youtube). If the cut and
thrust combat style is your thing with the use of a lighter sword,
the shortsword is for you. Technical aspects of the arming sword
is that it is generally between 27 and 32 inches, has a
straight blade that is double edged, and weighs about 2.5 pounds. So
without further ado, check out this video on medieval knights going
at it in a somewhat humorous duel (for even more info check out the Arming Sword Wikipedia article).
