What are the best Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 swords?

As a result, we've put together a list of all the swords we found in both the Trosky and Kuttenberg regions of Bohemia so you can choose the right one for you.
You're going to want to pair your RPG to get you up and running in no time. Thankfully, deciding which sword to use is a little easier than finding and selecting the best armor, but we've still got you covered with details on sword stats and locations down below.

Best Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 swords
Here are the best KCD2 swords broken down by type and how early on you can find them.
Best KCD2 early swords
Once you're free of the pillory, the only weapon you have is the Hunting Sword. The best way to get a better weapon is to either trade with Blacksmith Radovan for a Basilard or to follow the Mutt side quest to completion. This will not only get you your furry friend back, but you can loot a Broadsword in the wolves' den where you find him.
If you're more interested in two-handed longswords, purchase a Knight's Longsword from Blacksmith Radovan, loot it from bandits you defeat, or wait until after the Wedding Crashers quest to access Trosky Castle. The Lord of Trosky Castle will tell you to speak with one of his men-at-arms to select a weapon for yourself; here, you can ask for a Common Longsword.
Best KCD2 one-handed sword
The best one-handed sword in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 is the Sword of Sir Valentine. This weapon can be crafted during The Reliquary task, obtained north of Sedletz Monastery in the Kuttenberg region.
If you craft it with the Martin's Secret perk unlocked, it will have the highest masterclass quality and damage output of all one-handed swords. The Sword of Sir Valentine is a great weapon to pair with the Dominant Hand (Agility) and Back Alley Skirmisher (Thievery) perks, which give massive buffs if you use a one-handed sword without a shield.
Best KCD2 longswords
The best longsword in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 is Radzig Kobyla's longsword. While it may be less powerful when you pick it up than, say, the Dueling longsword, the Radzig longsword can be upgraded to bring its power above anything else you can find in the game. Once upgraded, it has a power of 168 – above anything else you can purchase.
You get Radzig Kobyla's longsword during the main quest, and the upgrade option is available to Henry whenever he visits a forge. You need some materials and a few levels in craftsmanship to complete the upgrade but trust us, it's well worth it.
Those are all the swords we found while exploring both Trosky and Kuttenberg for over 100 hours. While you're here, be sure to read our KCD2 Brushes with Death DLC – we'll add them soon.
