@ 13th madman, The Devil's Advocate WP,

Gambol Shroud has about the same blade width as Crocea Mors and Jaune was able to behead a Giant Ursa with his sword. I've no doubt that Gambol Shroud, being a single-edged saber and owned by a professional, is even sharper.

With regard to the gun mode, Storm Flowers has already proven that pistol-calibre guns are pretty much useless against Grimm. Unless they're both upgraded to at least .357 magnum or even .440, those modes are mostly for show. FWIW, I suspect that Gambol Shroud's pistol is probably optimised to propel the weapon in 'chain scythe' mode and isn't anticipated to be used offensively except as a last resort.
