Forgive typos, my comp's keyboard is shot from the alchohol. 
Nonono. Weapons are very different. From these ooc comments it sounds like a sword became a bokken basically. Even if the weight is perfectly the same, it's different in use. It's like... swinging a hammer with the hammering part forward compared to swinging the part used to remove nails. If you're a layman, you won't notice much difference if any, but to someone trained, or used to it, it's a huge difference.

Precisely what I was getting at. It's the practice that makes one good with a weapon.
