Oh, and yes, a kris is a kind of sword as well as a kind of knife. --Andrew 05:12, Apr 14, 2004 (UTC)

Considering they started in southwestern Turkey and were produced as far as Plovdiv, I'm placing them under "Europe". Alphros 02:52, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Ongoing list of things where help is needed

I've put this on a couple other pages already, but . . . I need help finding out what a dolon is and whether it fits this category. The reference to it is at Swordstick. Thank you. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 204.95.23.122 (talk • contribs) 06:47, 3 December 2006 (UTC).

Me again. Anyone know where the San-Ku-Chu comes from? I think Okinawa, since that's where the Sai is usually traced back to, but I'm not sure.

And again. Turns out the link for Briquet goes to disambiguation, and there is no main page for the weapon. Anyone care to write a one-sentence stub for it? (I can't because I don't have an account.)

Once more. Ken and Barong have the same problem as Briquet. And Talibon has a similar problem: the link goes to a town's page, and there's evidently no page for the weapon.

And also, it really would be nice if Bastard sword had its own page instead of being a subsection of Longsword.

And also, does anybody know where the pappenheimer goes on the list?

I see a ton of sword-related pages out there. It seems most swords ARE war-swords. Also, a lot of this information is already in the Types of swords article. Deatonjr 23:43, 18 March 2007 (UTC) The preceeding comment was placed on Talk Talk:Types of swords
