A sword is a bladed melee weapon consisting of a long blade and hilt, historically used for combat, dueling, and ceremonial purposes across many cultures, from the European longsword to the Japanese katana. Today, interest in swords lives on through historical fencing (HEMA), collecting, martial arts training, and stage or screen combat choreography. Enthusiasts study sword history, metallurgy, and technique as both a physical discipline and a connection to historical craftsmanship.
