Fauchard
The Fauchard by is a long, curved sword with a single cutting edge. The blade is silver-colored with darker spots and etching. A cross-like marking appears on the blade near the guard. The guard is shaped like a hand with four fingers and a thumb extended outward. The handle appears to be cylindrical and made of metal, with two decorative rings, one near the guard and one near the pommel, which is not visible. The background is a plain gray color.
