Half-swording and that thing where you hold the blade and use the sword's guard as a hammer are viable techniques in medieval techniques. They were actually quite common. European swords weren't that sharp, knights wore gauntlets and there are ways to hold a sword without cutting yourself.

My question is: is there a way to implement grabbing a blade in a universe where pistol-whipping can cut a robot in half, just touching a blade can cut an object or creature in half and every attack creates a cutting wind force?
