Large Weapons(3.5)

[sambouchah]

A player of mine has been using a Huge Falchion lately. Is this a reach weapon when used by a medium character?

Thanks, Sam

No. Large creatures have reach because their limbs are longer, not because their weapons are longer.

No. Reach weapons are those which say they are, and wielding inappropriately sized weapon does not grant you reach. See Rules Compendium pg. 150 (or maybe 151, I forget).
