Is there even evidence of copper swords existing? The whole Copper Age is really just in our "history" because it has to be. The archeological evidence is pretty scant. It's possible people used lead (even easier to melt and shape, and there is evidence of very early use of lead) more than copper before the Bronze Age.

Kopeshes are pretty well established. Which were copper swords.
