i did this before but i was a noob and didn't do any pictures or anything an it just wasn't a good thread. but its dead now so here is a better version!

so here is what you do. 2 warriors fight in a one on one battle in flat terrain they are both equally skilled and have no armor but they have different weapons you vote on which one would win.

first battle.

Longsword

Vs

Broadsword

Er what? A rapier is actually rigid, so is useful for combat, unlike a foil.

Rapiers lose quite a bit of viability when you don't have parrying dagger, that point aside I still vote for the rapier.

Rapier, because of...

Fancier, sharper, and harder.

^this.

They weak against pretty much every other weapon there is!

Usually rapiers were used in duels against other people with rapiers, so that takes care of that.

That is called a challenge :P

It's a shame I didn't get to comment about the claymore vs katana. I actually own a Claymore and prefer that over a Katana.

I choose the Rapier. The name itself just sounds like it will mess you up.

Bayonet that is what a "classic dagger" is

no a bayonet is a blade you put at the end of a gun

Simple choice again? The Kris's unusual shape means that any stab inflicted with it will be harder to pull out, and it's heavier for it's length than a dagger. It's also easier to throw a dagger.

Dagger

Classic dagger. I own one myself and it is good weapon.
