From the Magic Item Compendium, page 138. They say the wearer is treated as one size category larger than normal, so a human can wield Medium or Large weapons.
I understand that kicks up the damage dice. But does this item also grant additional reach? In my case I have a human armed with a glaive and need to know if the reach increases from 10 feet to 15 feet.
From the SRD:
A reach weapon is a melee weapon that allows its wielder to strike at targets that aren’t adjacent to him or her. Most reach double the wielder’s natural reach, meaning that a typical Small or Medium wielder of such a weapon can attack a creature 10 feet away, but not a creature in an adjacent square. A typical Large character wielding a reach weapon of the appropriate size can attack a creature 15 or 20 feet away, but not adjacent creatures or creatures up to 10 feet away.
