General information
Twohanded edged weapons are swords and axes that require two hands to use. They do a lot of slice and impact damage and are occasionally pole ranged. Like all twohanded weapons, they can be used with armworn shields, but with a penalty to both the shield and the sword. Swappable weapons that can be used as 2HE weapons are Bastard sword and Splitting maul.

Historical
Under old forging, forged models were capable of inflicting more damage than any other melee weapon, and their relatively light weight has made them one of the more popular melee weapons in the game. Prior to old forging, most twohanded edged weapons were well over sixty stones, but models with bone-crushing slice are relatively easy to forge at as light as thirty-two stones.
