Swords were sharp. Their shape itself indicates that.

There's no way they'd benefit out of being blunt. Their balance, weight, flexibility (that's important, blades bend, you know) are not useful for bashing skulls.

If you need a blunt weapon, go get a flanged mace. They weight around the same and all you lose is some mobility, reach and a crossguard.

I'll let this sword slide this time as these lazor beams may be some super BS plasma that has insane density, contributing to the mass of the weapon.

the shape still doesn't make sense though. and the naming of the weapon. swords are swords because they're sharp. i fail to see why DE decided to add a blunt weapon to this category. It's called "Heavy Blade". "Blade".
