Edged Weapons

One-Handed edged (OHE) weapons are some of the most common weapons in Elanthia. They're easy and require little training to use, as evidenced by training point costs. The various one-handed edged weapons are the backsword, bastard sword, broadsword, dagger, estoc, falchion, handaxe, longsword, main gauche, rapier, scimitar, and short sword. Two hybrid weapons that require training in OHE include the katar and katana.
