A sword equipped with a long thrusting blade was called "cross sword" in the Swiss Confederacy. The weapon seems to have been brought to Swiss territory from France by mercenaries. They were banned on the occasion of the Diet ("Tagsatzung" ) of 11 March 1409, because their use was limited in comparison with the swords for slashing and thrusting (Swiss degen). Good replica of a weapon which is not available in the original. Cf. E. A. Gessler: Vom Kreuzdegen, ASA NF 24, 1922, pp. 158 ff.
