However (as far as we know) Hunters are not soldiers and act for the most part independently from each other. That gives them the freedom to have their own weapon(s). If Jaune is using a mass produced sword made for soldiers in an army, it would make sense that it isn't as flashy as the custom made weapons used by Hunters-in-training and Hunters in general. However even if it's not flashy, it is sharp enough to behead a Ursa Major in a single slice.
