    I thought that was cannon? It’s that not specifically mentioned somewhere? I can’t remember when I heard it but I always thought that they were made to be hard to use, because winning a battle with a regular weapon is easy and therefore less honorable.

    And if you watch the actors try to swing these things around they always look awkward.
