I myself have always been a fan of blunt weapons versus sharp weapons. In Mount&Blade, knocking enemies unconcious and taking them prisoner is an important source of revenue early game. However, I feel that blunt weapons are a bit on the weak side. The strongest blunt weapon never matches- or even gets close to- the Sword of War, albeit the strongest sword in the game, in terms of power. The strongest blunt weapon is much much slower as well. I do not believe that blunt weapons are represented fairly in Mount&Blade. Until Effidian releases a compatible version of his editor for v7.10, I'll have to cry myself to sleep. =(
Of course, the jousting lance is awesome. But that's lancing, not up-close melee fighting. Which is an entirely different matter.
