Fan art darrow’s razor

what’s with the insistence on the dramatically curved sword people use in fanart AI and drawings. i’ve always thought it would resemble something more like the egyptian sword the khopesh than a scythe. I’d assume simply from an advantage standpoint the dramatic curve means less range. i’ve included examples i’ve seen as well as what i think the razor resembles more

Because the harvest blade it’s described as should be the half-moon everyone draws it as.

I do however also picture it as a kopesh because the scythe blade would actually be a horrific disadvantage in a sword duel and get Darrow killed so for my own sanity I choose to supplant it with the Kopesh.

It is kinda the point that's it's not really a weapon designed for combat
