[edit] Witcher's steel blade

The Witcher's Steel Blade is one of the steel swords that Geralt receives at the beginning of the game, during the prologue (the very first being a rusty sword). Alhough it is used primarily against humans and has little effect on monsters, Geralt is able to fight off most monsters during the early stages of the game using only this sword. Made of meteorite metal, the metal from a falling star, this sword is deadly against opponents resistant to silver like common monsters and evil people.

This sword can be found several places, like some blacksmith shops, usually after Act III.

[edit] D'yaebl

This sword is given to Geralt by Velerad as a gift from King Foltest for curing Princess Adda.

Stats Damage + 30% Chance of critical effect: Pain + 50% Chance of critical effect: Disarm + 25% Looks like a curved saber with a monster head as a pommel. Buy Sell 1500 300

[edit] Elven Sword of the Blue Mountains

This sword is carried by elves and so is not usually found anywhere but in their remains.

Stats Damage - 30% Chance of critical effect: Disarm + 20% Chance of critical effect: Precise hit + 15% Looks like an elven sword (bent blade) Buy Sell 400 80

[edit] G'valchir

This is the sword, a Mahakaman rune sihill, Geralt receives from the dentist for completing the Won't Hurt a Bit quest. Additionally, the Royal huntsman offers Geralt a choice of this sword or the Moon Blade for turning all ten trophy monster heads. It can also be obtained by completing Mud and Velvet quest by keeping the money for yourself (if so, you have to kill Captain Jean-Pierre).

Stats Damage + 100% Penetrates opponent armor Looks like a broadsword Buy Sell 1000 200

[edit] Gwalhir

This sword can be bought from blacksmith's son during Act IV. I have not found it in any remains, but it is better than Harvall.

Stats Damage + 50% Chance of critical effect: Disarm + 40% Chance of critical effect: Pain + 40% Chance of critical effect: Precise hit + 40% Looks like an Egyptian kopesh Buy Sell 3000 600

[edit] Harvall

Harvall can be found in Act II, or III in the swamp on a decomposing body on Wyvern Island (in the north central part of the Swamp). It is a much better blade that the default witcher's steel blade, so if you get it in Act II, keep it and sell the witcher's steel blade instead.

The rusty sword is the first weapon Geralt receives in the Prologue. These swords can be found in lots of remains of adversaries, but sometimes in containers, most commonly in the early Acts. In Act III, there is one on a corpse west of the Golem Burial Grounds.
