They had a neat weapon on forged in fire that was sort of a sword/spear hybrid but not like a naginata or polearm with a sword-like tip. It was called a boar sword and while it looked mostly like a 2-handed sword, the blade was actually fairly short and the rest of it above the handle/guard was more like a spear shaft. It had side spikes separating the blade from the shaft-like part, so basically it was used to hunt and defend against boars, with the blade being long enough to be lethal but the spikes to guard against the boar just impaling itself further in an effort to gore the hunter. I had heard of boar spears before the show, but this was definitely a sword. Pretty neat and smart design for its function.
