It does not take a three foot long, relatively delicate blade to kill a man, and the training required to make use of a sword is far in excess of that of other, comparably lethal weapons. Organs, to be blunt, simply do not care whether what punctures them is rich and complex, or crude and cheap.

Thus, in a practical society, such as on Athas, that makes these weapons more signal than armament. A person openly brandishing a sword may either be displaying they have the wealth or prestige necessary to own it, or they are one of the few with the sheer bloody skill needed to use it. In either event, it is a warning to others that the bearer is not to be trifled with. Which category you fall into is entirely up to you."

"Perhaps the second weapon ever invented, the spear continues to be the tool of choice for the practical killer on a budget. Beings have been using these weapons to end lives since the first sapient lives realized it was easier to push a pointed stick into your foe's chest than a dull one.

Light enough to carry overland, but long enough to keep the claws of beasts at bay, the spear excels in the wilds. Good enough to take a life, but cheap enough to throw away if needed, the spear can be used without regret or remorse for wear and tear. Finally, able to hold a front line in times of war or a fishing line in times of peace, the spear is truly in a category all its own. Take care of it, and it will take care of you."
