Why did Marka Ragnos and the Sith of his era use Sith Swords?

Any Alamo's? I guess the Battle of Hoth. Or the Seventh Battle of Ruusan.

In that case, I'll take what I can get.

But it would've been good to have a "THIS IS HOTH!" moment.

Kaan: "This is suicide."

Hoth: "THIS IS HOTH!"

Sounds alright.

Don't forget the kick to a bottemless pit.

Or in this case into a wave of Dark Side energy which eliminates all life in its radius.

Talk about a last stand.

They probably use them because, according the Dark Side Sourcebook, the blades are strengthened by the dark side of the Force.
It be handy because the stronger you are in the dakr side, the more powerful your blade is.

So is it possible to wield a katana, let's say, against your ordinary lightsabre? Granted you are consumed by the dark side and all that.

There's a reason and the Sith gave it several times themselves:

A sith sword feels a LOT better to kill your enemy with.

Were they not made of cortosis? because if they were then yea, at the time the swords would have been superior.

And if they weren't, well, we all know that the dark side is a path way to many abilities that some would consiter to be... unnatural.

They weren't. The sith likely didn't have cortosis

Originally they may not have been made Cortosis, though I believe the ones(sith tremor sword) found in use by Revan's sith empire were .

Guuuuuuuuuuuuuuuys.

So can regular blades be used as Sith Swords or is there a standard?

There is a standard cause the original blades were most likely made out some type metal from Korriban and infused with the key ingredient sith alchemy.

Ohhhhhh. I see.

By the way, looking at your avatar, do you think Wentworth would make a better Sith or a better Jedi?

He would be a jedi probably, I believe a psychiatrist said that his character, Michael Scofield has become very attuned to the suffering others around which is why he allows Tweener to escape Fox River despite him being a snitch.

True that.

Michael would be Luke
Linc would be Han
Sucre would be Chewie
Mahone would be...I don't know. Vader

Either way, the Dark Side leads to many great things, I could see how it could make a sword that strong. And it would be more free to wield than those ancient light-sabers with those power packs and everything.
