Historical Information:

The Greek Kopis was a single-edged, forward-curved sword developed in ancient Greece. This weapon was primarily used by the Greek cavalry and soldiers in the 4th century BC. The Kopis was designed for powerful chopping and cutting motions, making it especially effective in close-quarters combat, where it could deliver devastating blows to opponents. Unlike straight-bladed swords, the curve of the Kopis allowed it to be wielded with great force and precision.

The Kopis was ideal for mounted troops due to its design, allowing soldiers to strike from a higher position on horseback. This historical sword was a significant part of Greek military strategy, as it could both cut and thrust, making it versatile in battle. The Kopis influenced the design of many subsequent weapons, including the falx and the kukri, and its legacy endures as a symbol of ancient warfare.
