Fun historical fact: The Falchion is actually a straight sword. It was supposed to work as a combination sword/axe, versatility of a sword with the power of an axe, that the lower classes could use because it was easy to make and used cheap, low-quality, metal. In fact, it's blade had to be straight otherwise you wouldn't get the axe like power from each strike. Fun history fact of the day.
