Appearance in Symphony of the Night (Item Type)
The item type known as a "sword" are decent length horizontal slashing swords that use one hand. Almost all of them move in the same fashion, similar to the Short Sword that you acquire at the beginning of the game. Some swords have special moves in addition to their standard swing. The only swords that move differently are the Crissaegrim and Chrysagrim. Other swords that are smaller or move in a completely different fashion are classified as Short Swords, Two-Hands, and Throw 1s.
