If you mean Fencing (the modern sport of dueling) they use three kinds of swords. Foils, epees and sabres. The most common is the foil.

There is also the rapier.

The final version of a sword actually meant for duelling was the epee du combat. It had a simple bowl-shaped guard, a straight handle usually wrapped in wire, cord, or leather, and a straight unsharpened blade with a needle point. If one put a pint on a modern fencing epee it would be very similar. Some of the last duels fought took place in France at the beginning of the 20th century and can be seen on YouTube in old newsreel footage, mostly shot at a distance because the duels were illegal.
