Vanskerry Noble Sword with Scabbard
This weapon is used only by Lord Gundarr Iceheart and Vanskerry Jarls. Since only one uncommon soldier uses it, it may be hard to find to loot; however, it can be found fairly often in shops as well. The sword is a good option for the early game: decent damage, balanced reach and attack speed, a low strength requirement, and a very cheap buying price.
