Like in many other cultures, the swords are a symbol more than a fighting weapon. The Third Reich created a large number of swords for various military and paramilitary organizations.
The most popular WW2 German Swords is; German Police Officer Sword and German Army Officer Sword.
Here are an example of the swords taken from Arundel Militaria.
