Why is it always swords? Get a spear or an axe, dude, way cheaper. Or a pike. Or a warhammer. Or flail, or mace. Or if it has to be a sword, what about a sabre, or machete, or those big curved swords pirates are often depicted with? There are so many types of weapons out there, fucking experiment a little.
Even Goblin Slayer knows how to use different weapons, from clubs to picks, and he throws his swords away constantly. Actually, that's the only reason he buys that specific sword type. Grinds them down so he can throw them at goblins.
