I know that he still has his shield. There's no need to be policing other people's grammer.

There's a reason why all good fighting swords are weighted near the hilt rather than the length or tip of the blade. Even IRL straight swords, from rapiers to two handed swords are weighted close to the hilt for ease of maneuverability. Blades weighted in the blade are more like axes where there's a smaller surface area where all the weight can focus on (Hence why forward curved blades: i.e. Sabres, Falxes, kukris, exist.

One can get rather tired quickly stopping thier axe/mace swing to block or strike from another angle compared to that of a properly balanced sword. It's like the difference between slicing and chopping.
