Medieval swords were much longer and used for slashing. The Roman infantry swords were shorter, and although Roman cavalry used a longer sword, they were still shorter than Medieval swords. The Roman sword was intended primarily for stabbing. It may be impossible to say which was better. In Medieval times armies were smaller than in Roman times because no one could afford to maintain the huge standing armies which once made the Roman sword so effective in battle.

The most common sword used during the Medieval Ages was the arming sword, also known as the knightly sword. This straight, double-edged sword typically had a cruciform hilt and was designed for both cutting and thrusting. It was favored by knights and soldiers for its versatility in combat and was often paired with a shield. The arming sword evolved over time, leading to various regional styles and adaptations throughout the medieval period.
