> look sword

This weapon has a broad polished silver blade upon which many strange runes

and symbols have been carved. The hilt is bound with fine leather through

which threads of gold have been entwined. A solid silver pommel protects the

wielder's hand in combat. The weapon is perfectly balanced and can be swung

with an ease belying its deadliness.

> consider sword

It is an engraved broadsword.

This slashing weapon can be wielded one-handed.

It is average while attacking and excellent while defending; its speed is average, and it inflicts average damage upon hitting.

It weighs four pounds.

Opinions

Best slashing weapon for defense and definitely the most widely used defensive weapon available. To wield it efficiently, you must have 13 or more strength, this puts it within reach of most casters who practice the strength spell.
