A two-handed sword +1 is an enchanted and magical weapon.[n] When this sword is compared to the standard two-handed sword, it has a +1 bonus to THAC0, damage and speed factor. At 12 lbs it is also 3 lbs lighter. The item value is 1,500gp in Baldur's Gate I, but only 900gp in Baldur's Gate II.

The two-handed sword is a derivative of the long sword. Weaponsmiths have always looked for ways to improve existing weapons. In an effort to improve the long sword, the blade was lengthened. Eventually, the handle had to be extended and two hands became necessary to properly swing the sword. The primary function of two-handed swords is cleaving mounted knights and breaking up pike formations. This one is particularly good at its job as it has been enchanted with a few magical properties.
