if I could give my two cents, I'd think it would be better from a realism standpoint to not divide it up so cleanly, as in, into one hand/ two hand/ polearm. For instance, I could see someone who is well versed in using a hatchet also being able to use a hammer just as effectively. The techniques and form are generally the same. However, I couldn't see this same person picking up an epee for the first time and using it just as flawlessly, as would work out in such a division. It would probably be better to divide skills into "groups" of general combat techniques, somehow. Obviously things wouldn't be perfect, but it would make more sense than the current setup, at least in my opinion.
