A bat'leth (Klingon: "sword of honor") is a crescent-shaped metal blade about 116 centimeters across.. The weapon holds signifigance in the Klingon religion that revolves around the exploits of Kahless. Remarkably, in an age of spacecraft and energy weapons, many Klingons carry a bat'leth into battle[1], affirming the "space viking" cliche that they came to epitomize by DS9.
