Thanks man.

Im the body of a relatively fit american

Hm learn somthing new everyday

What language is that translate said creole. I thought you were speaking elvish or somthing
Edit: to not be an ass

Thank you. I havent been helping but i will take my leave now.

You're right in saying that my statement was incorrect. For the rest of this debate I tried to explain that i know they aren't they same I know thats not accuate but you keep coming at it. I tell you what the sword is but you keep relying back to my first statement that they are similar to prove that i dont know what the sword is. Im "backpeddling" because I was being vague. But you had to make it personal.

We keep throwing around percentages like it even matters. We keep arguing over wether im right or not. When in reality they debate is still out on this sword on its name usuage and design. They have broadswords, arming swords, knightly swords that all describe about maybe 1000 different sword designs from individual smiths. I dont know why I decided to dive into this debate with you when the image isnt even a real arming sword nor is it describing one. The point is too round. Im clinging to my "rightness" because i do know what an arming sword is. Even if I gave incorrect information when this shit show started.

You said nothing about a taper. Thats my information. You didn't say anything about that name origin or country of origin. The only thing I said that you also said was its use by cavalry. I care about true or false. I'm still fighting you because I know what a fucking arming sword is. I own one. I keep trying to beat this into your thick skull. I made a broad statement to not be a know it all. Its a meme not a doctoral disertation I dont have to be 100% accurate. I know its not 100% accurate. Neither was the meme to start with. But we arent whinning about that are we. No you attack me personally to prove that you feel smarter because you studied the hell out of an obsolete weapon.

And for the record the arming sword or knightly sword by some historians was thought to be developed from the ulfberht design around the 11th century. As they found similarities in hilt and blade length. Found in several countries like England france and the HRE. The name comes from the french and is theorized to be used by knights on horse back as a side arm (as many had lances). Should the lance break on the charge you have a second weapon. The weapon developed over the centuried to a sharper taper and point to meet the demands of modern armies in plate armor as a sharper point was needed to defeat plate. Bodkin tip was developed for this reason as well.
Edit: spelling

This is not a debate I wanted to have with you. I know full well the differences between all the weapons mentioned and the cultures/civilisations that used them. I never said they were same but you keep acting like I've committed some cardinal sin. My only point if we're going back to the original topic was. The ulfbert is the closest to the arming sword given the other swords in the image. True I didnt say that last bit but thats what I ment and should have said.
I knew it was inaccurate because I was being vague and trying to not be a know it all. This was never supposed to be a debate over specs and archeological data on a sword that honestly changes name depending on the historian you ask. You saw a chance to be a sword snob and you took advantage.
Quit acting like you're some prime example of gentlemany debate I've taken note too. You've been argumetative and looking for fights. do us all a favor and promptly remove the stick from your ass before it becomes stuck.
