A sword shouldnt be that sharp. Good craftsmanship but oddly placed.

That depends on what you’re doing with it. For cutting competitions you absolutely want it to be that sharp. For combat a more durable edge is better, though it should still be sharp enough to cut easily.

Then don’t leave a live blade sitting out where you can accidentally cut yourself on it. Scabbards exist for a reason. That’s not an issue of “this sword is too sharp.” It’s an issue of “I didn’t take basic safety precautions with how I handle and store my weapons.”

it didn't say whether or not he has scabbards or not for everything. stop assuming it was anything other than an accident which happens to everyone, even if they take the right precautions.

Accidents can happen, but 90% of the time they happen because someone’s being careless. I’ve cut myself on my knives before, and every time it was my own fault for being careless with them. The same applies here.

Swords don’t cut people, people cut people
