A long sword is one of the more popular weapons, for its damage and versatility. A plain long sword does d8/d12 damage against small/large monsters. Being made of iron, it can rust and corrode. A lawful character who is level 5 or higher can get Excalibur by repeatedly #dipping one into a fountain.
A significant fraction (7/24 = 29.2%) of artifact weapons are long swords, the highest of any item type. Therefore if you find one early (or start with one, as is the case with knights and valkyries) it would be a good idea to practice with it should you want to use an artifact weapon at some point, assuming that you are not restricted in long sword.
