Defending
A defending weapon allows the wielder to transfer some or all of the sword’s enhancement bonus to his AC as a bonus that stacks with all others. As a free action, the wielder chooses how to allocate the weapon’s enhancement bonus at the start of his turn before using the weapon, and the effect to AC lasts until his next turn.

Moderate abjuration; CL 8th; Craft Magic Arms and Armor, shield or shield of faith; Price +1 bonus.


If a character has a +1 Defending dagger, with the benefit of Greater Magic Weapon cast on him making it a +3 weapon... can he transfer up to 3 points to his AC bonus?

Greater Magic Weapon temporarily increases the enhancement bonus, so I'ld let it work.

Yeah - I think I'd let it work too. Interesting use of the spell ;)
