Talk:Two-handed sword

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] "considerable strength"

I don't see why that is there, because I know of a swordfighter (for the lack of a better word) here in Bremen who is able to "fight" with a zweihänder and is not really that strong. It's all about leverage, and with the long hilt that isn't really an issue. I don't want to change the article based on original research, so I'll leave this comment here. If the term "considerable strength" is based on opinion or O.R. then I would suggest to have that changed into "appropriate technique" or deleted alltogether.--Deelkar (talk) 28 June 2005 13:21 (UTC)

[edit] Döppelhander

please stop inserting the "Döppelhander": there is no such term, it isn't even German. Correct German would be "Doppelhänder", but that is not in use. In actual use as a synonym of Zweihänder, there is "Bidenhänder". dab () 22:49, 25 December 2005 (UTC)
