Historical References[ | ]
While historical references to bastard swords are sparse, several swords of this type have survived. Also known as a hand-and-a-half sword (as its grip is long enough to accommodate the wielder's hand plus a few fingers), this weapon doesn't seem to be a distinct type of sword, instead being a type of relatively short longsword or long arming sword.
Notes and Trivia[ | ]
- Along with the messer, the bastard sword is the only weapon in the game capable of being wielded in either one or both hands.
