Khopesh is also slash and stab. It's design is made to strengthen both stabbing and slashing bast thos of a straight sword. Halberds are mainly an advantage against cavalry; addd reach is a plus, yes, but weapons designed for anti-cavalry combat are at a disadvantage against weapons designed for anti-infantry combat. The chu-ko-nu has a shorter range, less penetrating power, and less accuracy than a coposite bow, thus getting Ramses II a kill from a farther distance.
