Can someone explain the use of the tip of the sword shown below. I have seen a few references for thi sbut have noticed it was not common amongst all swords.
Also, I read soem swords had grooves that ran teh entire length of blade and teh reasoning put forward was that these grooves allowed blood to drain off more freely and allowing the removal of the sword from the body to be easier?
Is this true or another poor attempt at am hostorical explanation?
