Actually, I think Weiss pretty much lacks combat experience pre-Beacon, compared to the others (not counting Jaune).

She seemed somewhat nervous when she fought freaking Beowulves in the Emerald Forest, and the fact that she swings the rapier more than stab with it can be the result of a combination of combat inexperience and nervousness, which leads to her not using the rapier correctly most of the time.

And when she fought the Knight, she didn't do the smart thing and use Dust from the start, relying mostly on Semblance and slashes instead of thrusts. That's not very smart. But of course, if she lacked experience, plus other factors, the lack of inteligence in that decision makes a bit more sense.
