Didn't we learn in Origins that Wolverine isn't as good with a sword as he used to be? Even after training with Silver Samurai he got punked by Romulus (with the sword).

Also when Wolvie trained with SS it seemed he got his skills back, pretty sure he commented on that.

I can believe he got the feel for it back, but I don't think he became one of marvels best swordsmen just like that. He's definitely good, and I was talking about how wolverine was pretty much incapable of using his sword against Romulus so he pulled out his claws (which he is better with)

So much wrong with this post.

a) Romulus fight happened before that.

b) At the end of the re-training Logan was actually better than SS himself.

c) Harada stated that Logan's sword skills are already near flawless. The problem lied somewhere else.

He simply needed to remember what he used to know. To the point he said he could've beaten Silver Samurai 10 different ways with the sword or something of that sort. But yeah, claws is something he's more used to.

Half of a sword, you mean. While SS had two. And he chose to hurt Harada with its hilt...

She's be close at the top, IMO.

I honestly think Bruce would take her in a sword fight. Slade didn't have much trouble with her.

Didnt Wayne say she was better than him??

So many fail lists posted it's not even funny.

When he was reforming the Outsiders? I think he said something, but I don't buy it.

Is that really a strike against her skill though?

Aren't you one of the biggest proponents of the whole "Deathstroke isn't that skilled, his stats just allow him to beat Top Tier MAs" tripe?

stick out tongue

She was inconsequential to Slade tough, if she was skilled enough to be "close to the top" of this list, she would have give DS a fight like every other skilled MA.

I like this list, takes showings and feats into consideration. Although I'm not sure about Wolvie being second maybe 4th.

Rhas Al Ghul I can agree to that.

Blade's too high, he is the only person on this list who has been destroyed in a sword fight and had his skills directly called into question.

I agree, Blade should be several spots lower, if not the bottum out right.

Didn't Logan mock Silver Samurai's skills recently?

Samurai told him his skill was "already nearly flawless" and then handicapped him with a broken boken and beat on him with two until Wolverine could beat him in a duel even with the massive handicap.

juggernaut74
I just recall Wolverine saying to himself all the mistakes Harada was making or something.

BTW Black Knight should be on this list. He was stated to be the best swordsmen to ever live once.

DP fights with two swords, he's the best.

Two is more than one. The math checks out, you must be right.

He could probably use 3 if he wanted to.

Nah, if he did he'd be a lame anime character

Musashi Miyamoto used two swords... until he became good enough to win all his duels with a carved wooden paddle... embarrasment

I guess fairly recently he's been using two swords.
