@Shark19 That's not right. One-handed swords are so-called Arming Swords, designed for one-hand use, while Long Swords are designed for two-handed use. A bastard sword is (as the name suggests) both usable with one and two hands. Of course you might use an Arming Sword with two hands or a Long Sword with one hand, but it won't be as effective due to different design (e.g. balance of the sword).

There is a fourth type, the Zweihänder, a really big sword, about 1,80m with hilt (also seen in the game). It is designed for two-handed use only, wielding it with one hand is nearly impossible.
