Historical Information:

The Greek Kopis is a historic single-edged weapon used predominantly by ancient Greek cavalry during the 5th and 4th centuries BCE. Its forward-curved blade was ideal for powerful slashing attacks from horseback, providing an advantage in close-quarter combat. Unlike the straight swords of the time, the Kopis excelled in delivering decisive chopping strikes. Often carried by elite warriors and commanders, it was both a symbol of status and battlefield efficiency.

The bird head motif seen in ancient weaponry often symbolized vision, speed, and power, making it a fitting addition to this design. The legacy of the Kopis lives on through modern recreations like this, honoring its place in classical warfare and craftsmanship.
