An early greatsword that you could find early on would be the Bastard Sword which can be found near the Cardinal Tower, down the ladder. Beware of the Old Ironclad Soldiers though, there's about 5-8 you have to encounter there.

Tip: When fighting the Old Knights, keep your equipment load under 70% so that you can do quick rolls to dodge. Tanking them works, but it'll exhaust your stamina and leave you open to attack.

Good luck.
