The shortsword is a rather weak sword, but it is one-handed (permitting use with a shield at no penalty), fairly cheap and has a somewhat better "point" attack compared to the heavier and more expensive (and generally superior) Broadsword.

Game Encyclopedia

Any double or single edged, straight-bladed, sword averaging 24 inches in length. The point of a shortsword is usually no sharper than the edge, but it may be designed to have a real point at the option of its maker.
