Some of them are really queer, like that super slow rotating cut with a sword.
But the worst must be the spear. Spears are thrusting weapon and their most dangerous part is the tip. You use them to thrust, to impale or run through your opponents, not to "smack" them over the head with the shaft. It's true that the shaft can be used also in combinations, but the main attack with a spear should always be the thrust.
