Well those who are untrained are likely the people who will opt for cool points over practicality/safety. :P

I personally think a gun/rifle (like those old fashioned straight guns) and Halberd hybrid would be more interesting while also more practical. From what I know, War Scythes aren't actually a practical weapon either (though I do know that the ancient Egyptians had a thing for combat sickles, but that's a different story).
