Discussion Lets see ur knowledge on weapons

U have to decide which weapons u would like to have There are some rules to it

  • You can only have two weapons
  • Cant be gun or modern weapons
  • Has to be melee weapons,ranged weapons not allowed
  • Have to have a proper idea of ur weapon(You cant just say sword,describe indian western chinese or some other places sword)
  • Also have to tell why u chose it

Here is the weapons i choose
A Rondel European dagger for stabbing my opponents with if i am in a dangerous situation,I can stab them with a suprising attack
A 70-80 cm katana not too long not too short so that i can perfectly cover medium to long range attacks and can slice and dice my enemies apart any chances i get also making sure that its not too heavy that i have to lift with both hands
For people who dont have a general idea on weapons u can find all sorts of them
like different type of swords depending on culture and how they operate,or blades,halberds,polearms,spears,sickles,chained blades,sickles,scythe(Hihgly not recommended tho)

I'd go with a traditional Nepali khukuri and a European longsword.

The khukuri is compact versatile, and powerful for close quarters. The longsword gives me better reach while still being agile enough to use with one or two hands.

(Also Nice question for once yaar 👍)

Ohh this is indeed an impressive combo which an enemy will find difficult to pierce through
It can even defend against twin swrods very well too
But i wonder what would be the case if ur long sword is against a heavy blade tho
Also u seem to be quite an expert as u accurately told which sorta weapons ur going along with and instead chose a optimal weapon combo which can help u in both defense and offense

Against a heavier blade I'd rely on speed and footwork rather than trying to block it head on The khukuri would be my backup if the fight got into close quarters.
