Weapon:Bastard sword (crafted)

A bastard sword is a melee-range Heavy Edged / Twohanded Edged metal weaponsmithing template.

It is a 09- Intricate template, uses 9 volumes of metal, and is covered by the Advanced Swappable Weapon Design technique.

It is 10 by 1 by 1 spans.

This metal weapon has the standard construction values for its type.

The crafted broadaxes are also identical in performance to this template.

Used unweighted tempered low carbon steel for reference.
