A long sabre. Its wide, curved blade increases the damage it deals, but also makes it a little bit harder to handle accurately.
This weapon falls into the Long Blades category. It is a one handed weapon, and it is best used by the dexterous.

Scimitars are the best one-handed Long Blades that are still easy to find. While you may eventually wish to upgrade to a demon blade or a double sword, you can use a scimitar while you're still waiting to find one. They're still fairly difficult to use effectively, so players with low skill in Long Blades may wish to stick with a long sword while they level up.

Scimitars are also notable for being the type of edged weapon that is easiest to find flame-branded (and therefore useful for safely chopping off hydra heads), as Erica, Azrael, and bottled efreets will always carry flaming scimitars.
