The misconception of the blood groove, often associated with swords and knives, likely originated from a misunderstanding of the design and purpose of the fuller, a groove or channel running along the blade. While some believe it serves to prevent blood from clogging the blade, the fuller actually reduces weight and increases strength. This design aids in the balance and maneuverability of the weapon, rather than addressing blood flow. Over time, this misconception has been perpetuated in popular culture and media.
