How to unlock the The tools of the profession achievement in Vampyr - Definitive Guide
All credit for this guide goes to SnowNinjaRaccoon (DK) & PowerPyx from PowerPyx.com who provide a complete guide to finding all collectibles and all weapons in Vampyr.
This guide covers all 12 one-handed and 8 two-handed in chapter order, although the guide they created also covers all collectibles and ranged weapons as well.
Prologue:
[One Hand Weapon #1] Used Machete
You will run past it at the very beginning of the game. You will have to pick it up in order to protect yourself.
Chapter 1:
[Two Hand Weapon #1] Used Scythe
After passing the hideout on the higher floor you will cross a bridge and enter a tunnel. Jonathan will mention fresh blood. A bit further down the tunnel, you will find the scythe.
[One Hand Weapon #2] Used Bludgeon
Granted for Defeating William Bishop.
[One Hand Weapon #3] Used Hacksaw
Hospital, 2nd floor.
Chapter 2:
[Two Hand Weapon #2] Common Barbed Cudgel
Found at the start of the Sewer Section (you go there during the story).

Chapter 5:

It’s just before the sewer exit.

I fucked up and Archer in the Docks died from sickness, its the only weapon left to get, is there any extra ones or do DLC ones count, really can't be arsed with a third playthrough

Can you sell any weapons after finding them (since they track)? Or do you need to keep them all until the achievement?

You don't have to collect all the weapons in one playthrough.

You need to find 12 right-handed weapons and 8 two-handed ones. But with the weapon from the locker in my office, it turns out to be 13 for the right one. Then two-handed can be 7. A total of 20 units

Regarding Rodney's Scythe, if the steel lair is destroyed and he is not in the place where he was (at the dead end of the sewer), then he can be found right next to the merchant in the Western Docks.
