Historical Background

The Falx (Latin for sickle) was the signature weapon of the Dacians, fierce warriors from the Carpathian Mountains who famously resisted the Roman Empire. Used during the Dacian Wars in the 1st and 2nd centuries AD, the two-handed falx featured a deeply curved blade, sharpened on the inside, capable of splitting shields and penetrating Roman armor. Its effectiveness was so pronounced that Roman soldiers began wearing modified helmets and arm guards specifically to counter it.

With its origins likely in agricultural tools, the falx evolved into a brutal battlefield weapon. It was often wielded without a shield, relying on reach and ferocity, with warriors targeting exposed limbs and weak points in armor. Today, it remains a powerful symbol of resistance, freedom, and battlefield innovation.
