Labrys Andy identifies herself as "Andromache the Scythian," referencing an empire from the 8th century BCE. The edged weapon she wields is a modernized version of the Labrys, a double-headed battle axe associated with mythical immortal characters such as Zeus.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing Andy ready to split some skulls with her Labrys Error creating thumbnail: File missing Merrick takes a close look at Andy's Labrys Swords Nicky and Joe both died during the Crusades; Nicky as a Crusader, and Joe as a Saracen. In a nod to this history, Joe carries a cruciform-hilted, double-edged, single-handed sword that looks similar to those used by Christian knights during the High Middle Ages throughout Europe. Joe wields a fantasy version of a scimitar, a curved backsword that was popular with Middle-Eastern warriors during the Middle Ages. It's worth noting that "Scimitar" is an anglicized version of the Italian word "scimitarra," and refers generically to curved swords. Different cultures throughout Asia and the ancient Middle and Near East used different forms of these swords, for which they had their own names. The sword that Joe uses (more clearly visible in the film poster) looks more like the type that is used primarily for modern belly-dancing performances than an actual medieval relic.
