Reply to comment by impossiblefork in Archaeologists from Arkeologerna have unearthed an early 17th century sword from the time of the Kalmar War. A conflict between Denmark–Norway and Sweden that lasted from 1611 to 1613. by Apprehensive-Ad6212

Oh yeah swords we're totally still used at this time, but technology was advancing and Aldolphus (badass) was one of the first to switch things up successfully. Apparently some of his tactics developed in the Thirty Years War were borrowed in to the 19th century.
