The Greek xiphos sword is a double-edged, one-handed Iron Age straight short sword used by ancient Greeks. The classic blade was between 20” and 28” in. The xiphos sometimes has a midrib and is diamond or lenticular in cross-section. It was generally hung from a baldric under the left arm. The early xiphos was a bronze sword, and in the classical period, would have been made of iron. The xiphos was generally used only after the spear was discarded for close Tactical. Very few original Xiphos swords have survived. The xiphos’ leaf-shaped design allowed it to be used for cutting and thrusting. The design has likely been in existence since the appearance of the first swords. The leaf-shaped short swords were not limited to Greece and can be found throughout Europe in the late Bronze Age.
