We have to be concerned with the handle on this sword.
Did it have a hole through it?
If so, can it be classified as an "assault sword"?

Can it be swung repeatedly?
Can it be classed as a "semi-automatic sword"?

We don't know who owns these swords!
Why does anyone NEED these swords?
Clearly, some legislation is going to be necessary to protect everyone from these sword nuts!

When I was in Stockholm in the mid 1960s, I noticed that the police there carried a 4-foot-long sword in addition to the little .32 semiauto Browning pistols they wore in a full-flap holster on their belts. They had remarkably few problems from obnoxious drunks, and their sabers almost certainly were capable of doing a better job of immediately stopping a deranged or intoxicated individual on a murderous bent, as per the old Viking berserker or Germanic Blutrausch than the FMJ .32 auto bullets might.
