A '''cut and thrust sword''' is a [[sword]] used to deliver both cutting/slicing and piercing blows. Typically it had an unsharpened [[ricasso]] in front of the [[crossguard]] allowing a different grip where the index finger sits of the top of the [[crossguard]] and permitted greater control during a thrust.

The [[blade]]s of these [[sword]]s were typically wide shouldered and tapered to a sharp [[point]]. At times part of the [[blade]] might have a [[diamond section]] and the other a [[fuller]].

Cut and thrust swords were developed in the [[14th century]] and existed in many forms over the next three hundren years.
