The Zweihänder (pronounced "tsvay-haen-dar", literally "two-handed") is a massive late medieval/early Renaissance Germanic [[sword]] with a long hilt and two parrying hooks located above the ricasso (the unsharpened lower length of a blade), allowing it to be wielded similarly to a [[polearm]]. Due to its large size it required two hands to wield, hence the name. It was used in place of a [[halberd]] against cavalry and pike formations.

Commonly associated with the historical [[Landsknecht]], and in modern times is a fantastic weapon in [[Dark Souls I]].
