    100% sure on historic examples

    The plagerism machine says 2-10 inches, 2 inches is consistent with the 1 historical sword I’ve held.

    Can confirm tho about kids being bad with unbalanced blades, gave my nephew a 3 ft machete to help cut down some banana plants, he couldn’t swing it levelly so it got stuck in the plant every time, and he was a danger to anyone within 10 feet.

    Maybe try balancing a sword right infront of the guard, maybe it’ll feel more nimble.
