Don't take it personal, eh? LOL

Roll with it buddy. You have a most valid point.
It doesn't take much imagination to improvise some
thing that can be used in a sword like manner.
I doubt if umbrellas or the walking cane will be outlawed anytime soon...
I never got into the sword much, frankly, they scare me. I like my knives and my right to carry them very much. While I personally prefer a short tool, I have nothing against learning the sword... In fact, what little I know of them has helped my ability to adapt and improvise. Almost any old stick will do...
In a pinch you could even use a steel wire antenna... or a broom...
