Weapons by type[1] listed at this page.

Weapons provide the player with a means to defend themselves while traersing The World. Weapons can either be crafted, traded, or found in a variety of locations throughout The World.

It is important to note that with the exception of the Fists, carrying weapons does not override the ability to attack with either weapon; this means that if the avatar is carrying both an Iron Sword and a Steel Sword, they will be able to both "swing" with the Iron Sword and "slash" with the Steel Sword, and both weapons will experience cooldown timers independent of each other. In this way, it is typically advantageous to carry a variety of weapons, as their carrying cost is generally outweighed by the benefit to simultaneously attack with multiple weapons in battle.

Carrying more than 1 of any single type of weapon does not allow the avatar to attack twice with that weapon without a cooldown.
