I'm going to pitch in a lil by first stating I'm not taking eithers side, but both parties are mistaken in some areas

Maelstroa is correct and has provided proof that some Longswords have double the blade width to the handle

but Idaeus is also correct in stating the Greatsword do not have double the blade width to the handle: https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/81/ec/a2/81eca292d0341e1dc9caeb0452acdf7a.jpg

reasons being that Greatsword were made to be big, roughly as tall as a man, the blades were quite thin as opposed to thick to maintain balance, as it would be unwieldy and very top heavy
