there's a sword/dagger (still in use as a cutting tool/dagger in that country's army) but i cant remember what it's called/where it's from.
but, the blad on the curve isnt outwards, like a cutlass/scimitar etc, it's inwards.
originally, this was because the metal was soft, and helped counter this, but the more you think of it, thats an awful deadly weapon.
it doesnt have the advantages of a typical straightsword, but the blade being "inward" means more blade in you when you cut. and, like big cat's tooth, it also helps to dig itself out...
