most weapons in the show are custom designed for one person, to be intergrated into their individual fighting style. Picking up weapons from other people isn't a very good idea. Yangs new fighting style seems to be a mix of hand to hand in addition to Yangs usually blitzing with EC. So adding a sword into the mix isn't a good idea. And Ruby's current fighting style doesn't support hand to hand. The whole bloody point of having a Polearm (in this context her scythe is a polearm) and a sniper rifle is to keep your opponent at a distance
