Scimitar

For the equipment type, see Scimitars.

Scimitar is a mundane, nonmagical variant of the Scimitars family of weapons. It is a martial melee weapon wielded in one hand. As a finesse weapon, it can benefit from the wielder's Dexterity and not just their Strength. It is a light weapon that anyone can dual-wield without special training.

This human-made scimitar falls far short of replicating the quality of the drow style it clearly imitates.
