Swords were the handguns of old time. Easy to carry, usable in confined space but for actual war you'd want something bigger.

They’re so easy to carry that anyone who could afford to own one and knew how to swing the boat basic form thought they were a professional. Now, when an incompetent person owns a weapon it’s point and click so there’s less steel clattering against the floorboards and more corpses piling up.
