### In-Game Description --- *A standard curved sword. Each slash of a curved sword does less damage than a straight sword, but can deal a series of hits in flowing succession. The sharp blade is effective at causing bleeding, but is soon dulled. Beware when facing rock-solid foes.* ### Availability --- ***Dark Souls 2 & Scholar of the First Sin:*** - Unlimited sold by Blacksmith Lenigrast for 1,200 souls. - Skeleton drop - rare. - Belfry Luna treasure (Enchanted infused). Just below the Upper Ramparts Bonfire, where Vorgol the Sinner invades, and up a small set of stairs will be a corpse containing the weapon. ### General Information ---
