Are Swords Faster Than Axes in Skyrim?

Skyrim, one of the most popular fantasy-themed role-playing games, allows players to explore the vast wilderness of Tamriel and take up a variety of weaponry, from swords to axes. As players experiment with different weapon options, one of the most frequently asked questions arises: are swords faster than axes in Skyrim? According to Bethesda Softworks’ game design notes, swords generally swing faster than axes, making them better for a faster-paced and aggressive playing style. Here are the reasons behind this advantage, along with the notable differences between the two types of weapons.

Battle and Battle-Ax Handles Different Swing Styles
As detailed in a helpful comment from the Official Bethesda Support channel, sword battles usually have a lighter touch compared to battle axe interactions:

"When swinging with an axe, the action sequence would shift the direction quickly,
the motion similar to, let’s say a two-hander style…
You hold it different ways…"
With a lightest attack animation on all four possible axes
(Light axe, heavy axe, Maced Axe),…
