@AToySoldierx -Uses a thin paper which has a good story- SWORD DEFLECTED.
-Uses twilight which is four inches thick on a hardcover- SWORD PIERCES THROUGH.

ACTUALLY, books were not used as a means of protection but as a means of stabalizing your weapon when firing. You can tuck your elbow/arm on top of the book and use it as a stabalizer. We do this all the time in the Marines.

No... a sword can be used for both. Its all about the form. Besides, the sword they are using is pretty damn good at stabbing.

they used the sword wrong
that sword is meant for hacking and slashing not stabbing
