Undead RVD's "something, something, something" EDGES:
Iconic Weapons: I am going with the Vampire Killer Whip. While the Sword and Shield looks like the obvious winner, the Vampire Killer Whip has been shown to go through armor and has supernatural durability. Of the two, the Vampire Hunter Whip will deal the most damage and its reach and speed will give Simon the win.
 * EDGE: Simon

Secondary: The Hammer's power and reach will easily overpower the faster yet smaller Wooden Stake
 * EDGE: Sir Dan

Sub-Weapon: The Throwing Axe, despite being a throwing axe, is very big for a throwing axe and he can throw out allot of them at once. The normal Axe can be thrown to but it is allot slower and Simon can easily dodge it. He is not shy of slow boomeranging axes.
 * EDGE: Simon

Ranged Weapon: I am going with the Bladed Throwing Crosses. The Longbow, while powerful, is built more for power and reach over accuracy, unfit in a one-on-one fight. The Throwing Crosses are deadly against both groups of warriors and single warriors. He can throw out up to three in a row, making it even more deadly. Also, Dan isn't the most agile so Simon will be able to get the maximum damage out on him. Overall, Simon's Crosses gets it in this match.
 * EDGE: Simon

Secondary Ranged Weapon: This one is hard. While Simon can kill with his daggers, the Drumstick allows Dan to heal from damage. I say even. The Drumstick won't work on Simon but Dan can hit weaker enemies to give him health.
 * EDGE: Even

Magic: Lighting vs Fire... I say even. Both are deadly in their own rights.
 * EDGE: Even

Overall: I am going with 'Simon Belmont! His weapons are faster and hit just as hard. His speed, training and experience should be MORE than enough to take on the tougher but slower Dan. Simon can just keep getting pop shots on Dan while Dan struggles to land a hit. Simon has faced several enemies like Dan: Big, Tough Foes that hit Hard. Dan doesn't any tricks to pull out to stop Simon.
