What do double-edged swords look like?

Question

What I mean by this is the appearance of an ACTUAL WEAPON and not the commonly mistaken morale comparison. If anyone does know, please let me know ASAP. Thank you.

Answer 3

Conan the Barbarian uses a double edged sword, so does Aragorn from Lord of the Rings. A Samurai's Katana is an example of a single edged sword.

Answer 4

Go to any shopping center that has a knife and sword shop. The double edge is just that, unlike a pocket knife that has a cutting edge on the bottom, and a flat surface on the normally exposed edge, a sword can be built with a single cutting edge or both upper and lower edge is sharpened, and the weapon is kept in a scabbard.

Answer 5

Think of a steak knife, and image the dull side is identical to the cutting side.

Except they are not serrated edges, more like razor edges.
