What are a few types of one-handed straight swords, preferably with two edges? You see, one of the characters in my WIP book wields a straight, double edged sword, and I don't know what that kind of sword would be called. I've tried wikipedia, but it doesn't have nearly enough swords of this sort, aside from the dao and jian. Everything else is curved, one-and-a-half, two-handed, or meant for thrusting. Thanks in advance!
Edit: Oops, I made a mistake. The dao is a single edged sword, not double edged.
Edit 2: I forgot to mention above that the sword is meant to be used with a shield.
