Conan can wield a variety of 1 handed swords and axes, either by themselves, with a shield, or with another 1 handed weapon. He can also wield 2 handed swords of varying length and also halberds. Basically any weapon that an enemy is using, you can take from him and use. Bows are the only exception. It doesn't sound like much but a lot of the weapons have different designs depending on what area you're in, and the combat is very deep and satisfying. Lots of great moves, again depending on what sort of loadout you're carrying.
