Scimitar
Scimitar swords have been used in Middle Eastern warfare for thousands of years. It is even thought that the Egyptians borrowed the style for use in their weapons around 1600 B.C. Scimitars are found in almost every middle-eastern culture, with various design styles as well as going under different names. The English word 'Scimitar' is thought to have derived from Persia, meaning "lion's claw". These swords are very recognizable as they have a destinctly curved blade and sometimes have a ridge toward the end.
Since the scimitar sword is thought to have been created thousands of years before the religion of Islam, it has become noticeable in many Islamic traditions and can even be found on the Saudi Arabian coat of arms. It has also been noted that scimitars were used in Arabian combat that was similar to the Roman gladiator fights.
The scimitar sword has also made its mark within popular culture. Many times pirates are depicted using scimitar swords for swash-buckling. It is also found in many novels of fantasy fiction. For example, many warriors and royals used scimitars in the Chronicles of Narnia by C.S. Lewis, as well as they can be found in the Lord of the Rings by Tolkien.
