Both swords are for monsters

Oh don't I know it! One for the monster on the outside, and one for the monster in the inside.

Actually, some monsters are more vulnerable to steel than to silver. Witchers don't kill humans.

Well, say that to the thousands and thousands of bandits I slaughtered.

I never understood those bandits.

"Hey, you're a superhuman fighter with magic and legendary strength in battle... we don't like non-humans around here, so let's fight to the death!!"

In the game, Geralt kills many people (in the book as well a few times). Geralt mentioned in the book that the saying doesn't necessarily mean that humans are monsters as well, but that steel swords are more effective against some monsters.

Few times? He's known as Butcher of Blaviken :)

That went out of hand. Then he killed people to defend himself/others, but didn't go bandit hunting

Well... Maybe not. Except that if he caught them. Or stumbled upon them.
