Shashka. For all that people say it is crap, my 21/15 can use it rather well on foot or mounted. For the price (more important then ever with the new upkeep and expensive cav) it has good speed, amazing length, good damage and looks nice (besides the hilt... I am talking about the blade).

Also, less people use it so you can surprise a lot of people with the length.

Did I mention that it also has a sexy name?
I'm not normal and I don't pretend so, my approach is pretty much a bomb crescendo.
Death is a fun way to pass the time though, several little bullets moving in staccato.
The terror of my reign will live on in infamy, singing when they die like a dead man's symphony.

Shaska easily.  U are at a huge disadvantage if you dont have a thrust attack, plus its cheaper (half the price!)

Well the scimmy does have an advantage for its ghost reach and speed, but the Shaska is way cooler and underused. +10 extra points for the user.

The elite scimmy is faster, deals more damage and because of the curve hits earlier than you think. The stab? The only onehander worth stabbing with is the Long Espada, but even than it's worthless.

Everything about it is better, even the scabbard of the scimmy is better looking.
Don't mind the fish.

spoken like a true ignoramus.  thrust damage doesnt matter when you are going medium speed from horseback and enemy is coming to you.  I can headshot your horse with a thrust and murder you before you even get to swing your stupid scimi

Who says I'm on a horse? I don't have a single point in riding on my main at the moment. I even used an Arabian Cav Sword on horseback for the reach and damage when I was onehander cav. You never see the pro onehanders use the stab, I guess you are the ignorant one here.

Woops forgot it was for cav, but I still stand by my point.
Scimi is both better on horse and on foot, mostly because of the damage, you just need it badly.

I'd recommend Arabian Cav though.
