Roman Broadsword

The Roman broadsword features a broad blade that usually has double cutting edges. These were useful for executing cutting moves rather than stabbing moves; but despite this, the broadsword was a common weapon utilized in numerous battles in the past. The double-edged Roman broadsword was made specifically for cutting instead of stabbing, and with adequate skill, techniques, and power, the wielder can easily cut off an enemy’s limbs and even their heads.   Although it was a very useful and efficient weapon, its disadvantage would be that the Roman broadsword was challenging to master, and one required a lot of time to perfect this.  

Features of the Roman Broadsword

The broadsword featured a double-edged blade that had a width of two to three inches at its base. Depending on the user, the length of the broadsword ranged from thirty to forty-five inches, and it weighed about three to five pounds.   The primary purpose of this weapon was to slash and slice an enemy soldier, so if the wielder was highly trained in using the Roman broadsword, he can easily cut off parts of the enemy’s body such as his head or limbs with just a single slash.
