swords are nice for a gentalmans fight, and for slight distance but personally knives will always be better. you can get in closer, strike faster, strike from a distance if you have the skill. the only other weapon that can hold up like that is a a gun, and i have no respect for ppl that have to use a weapon that takes no skill. swords are decent as a defensive weapon but it really can't sneak in as a small blade can. for it to go through your armor it takes a massive shove or a major blow but a knife slides right between the attached armmor or the moving parts of it, or the side attachment or even right up under, and to make it better knifes are even a tool for forplay by some of us. what do ya'll think?
