Back-sword

A backsword is a type of European sword characterized as having a straight single edged blade and a hilt with a single handed grip. So called because the triangular cross section gives a flat back edge opposite the cutting edge. Later examples often have an "edge-and-a-quarter" blade where the first quarter of the back edged is also sharpened.
