Sword, Blade, Sidearm, Cavalry, Ottoman, Military, Central Asia, Saber
The Turks created their own fearsome version of the saber, the killij or killic. This is a specialized cutting weapon, brutally effective, somewhat similar in design philosophy to the yataghan: let the shield do the blocking, this thing is for lopping off arms and heads as efficiently as possible. It's mainly a fearsome chopper, which also has a partial false edge, some had a reinforced point for thrusting.
