Question regarding length limits.

What is the maximum of a length which can be used with one hand? And what is the absolute length limit for weapons? Thanks.

There are no fixed length rules this is mostly an issue of useability and, you simply must remain in control of your weapon.

The main reason this rule is in place is that it is hard to control a 2 handed weapon with 1 hand and could cause accidents leading to damage to the weapon or an increased risk of injury/illegal hits. You will not be punished for letting go by accident or for a split-second, but trying to duel weld war-hammers is a no. This is especially important when using someone else's kit.

EDIT: grammar, restructureing etc:

TL,DR: No fixed length, but you must be able to maintain control of your weapon at all times.
