Well, claymore has lots of staggering power but it's relatively slow, balder on the other hand offers faster thrusts and less stamina consumption, i guess get them to +14 and look at the moveset, even if you neglect either of them you have a backup for lots of situation. The balder sword can make a good backup, and is decent for weapon buffs, while claymore can help you stagger high poise opponents and has higher damage/hits, it depends on your playstyle really.
