Codex Manesse: a picture of mêlée at a tournament

This is a list of melee weapons. It includes modern and historical but not fictional weapons from fantasy or role-playing games. Melee weapons (from French, "mixed", referring to groups of fighters interlocked in close combat) are any weapon that does not involve a projectile — that is, both the user and target of the weapon are in contact with it simultaneously in normal use. As such these do not include statically emplaced weapons, like a boobytrap or burning devices, but are carried by the troops. A melee weapon is a type of "cold weapon".
