Do swords run out of ammo?

No, swords are weapons that don't run out of ammo like guns.
Guns run out of ammo, not swords. Swords have infinite ammo. Their
infinite ammo is their blade, not bullets. Guns run out of ammo and
have to be reloaded. Some how, swords are better than guns because
swords can deflect bullets. Guns uses bullets and swords uses
blades.

When were metal swords invented?

Metal swords developed gradually from the scythe. The scythe is
a farming tool used to harvest grain. It is a long, single edged
blade attached to a wooden handle. Swords were developed
indepentantly by different people on different continents. No one
knows for sure what year they first appeared, but they were
certainly around shortly after metal forging was invented in each
of the civilizations that eventually had them. There are records
and/or drawings of people having swords as far back as the ancient
Egyptians. The styles and sizes of swords have developed
differently and changed over time. The classic two edged, cross
shaped sword that most people think of when the see or hear the
word, developed around the year 800 AD in Western Europe. Most
earlier swords looked more like macheties and usually had only one
sharp edge.
