Spell strike with a weapon you don't have the skill for

[Axle]

I just picked up a blunt weapon that has spellstrike stored in it.

I only have 1 handed edged.

I was told that I can still swing that weapon for those spell strikes, just not damage or block with it.

Is this correct or do I need the 1 handed blunt skill to use those spell strikes?

You do not need the skill to activate the spell strikes. You cannot defend with the weapon once someone wants revenge.
