This civilian weapon was developed during the Baroque period. It gradually replaced the rapier from the middle of the 17th century since there was a growing need for lighter and less bulky weapons. This is due to the increased population growth and the associated lack of space during this period. The sword was mostly carried by members of the upper social class.
