I'm so tired, I'm so very tired
Aight thanks for the advice, I'll probably get a PDF copy or maybe a physical copy if the month's finances permit.

I've been sitting here for 5 mins trying to think of a joke to make but I just realised the animators of Mass Effect already did it for me

So today I learned about talonstrike swords, which are associated with Eagle Knights. One of my players is interested in becoming an Eagle Knight, and I would like to present them with such a sword. In first edition, these were +2 defending bastard swords. But defending isn't really a thing in second edition, so I'm wondering what would be an appropriate replacement. I was thinking maybe it could have a special quality that let you treat the bastard sword as if it were a buckler for purposes of Raise Shield. Maybe that would need some kind of limit? What would you think would make a good Eagle Knight sword special ability?

Isn't that basically what the Parry weapon trait does?

Yeah just put Parry onto the weapon, although the Parry is a +1 versus a +2. You can always rule it that way at your table for theming reasons.
