This is the weapon of choice for Shakespeare and Musketeer alike.  The best thing about this sword style?  It's double fence.  What does that mean?  That means not only do you have a sword in one hand, but you can have a dagger, small shield, cape, or even another sword in your other hand.  At first you may feel as though your brain is falling out of your ears, but quickly in the class you'll find that you can do more than two things at once.
