I think the weapons just weren't strong enough to deal with such a powerfull Grimm. They fire low-callibre weapons and have small blades not suited to cutting though bone armor or tough scales. Blake seems to have the same problem to a lesser extent with her Gambol shroud. It couldn't do a thing against the spider droid or the nevermore, and it only damaged the paladine to a combined strike with Ruby's scythe which I'm betting did the most work in cutting that arm off. I'm sure stormflower would be fine against a pack of beowolves or human opponants.
