      I think it’s been long enough that I forgot I don’t like Munchkin, and want to play Munchkin.

          Right alongside “Never get involved in a land war in Asia,” and “Never go in against a Sicilian when death is on the line.”

    I’m sure at least one of these has been tried/made before…

      Top left somewhat resembles a real life technique called half-swording.

        True, but no one would ever put a handle there. At least not jutting out to the side like that.

      100% on that Zweihander, the double handle hilt move the center of balance back which is ideal, though admittedly not as good as simply just a longer handle.

      Fun fact: “Zweihänder” is just German for “two-hand-er”. 😅

    top right is definitely something you’d see in a stupid 70s sci-fi movie as an alien’s traditional duelling weapon.

      It would make for an interesting duel though. Can you maneuver the cutting part of the blade to somewhere dangerous while your opponent controls their handle?

      Reminds me of Michael Jackson’s Beat It, where the two gang leaders have one wrist tied together and their switchblades in their other hand.

      That’s because it’s just a weird spear

        It’s a weird spear with a dangerous cutting blade near the wielder. All the danger of a long sword blade for the user, without the ability to use it for cutting or slashing because of the handle.
