This guy is at the ren faire by where I live every year, and I think he can convince you otherwise.And you can't really kill with a whip much
It depends on the skill of the user.I think a whip because its ranged and you can trip people up.
Really depends. See the link I posted.Whips are ranged but swords are stronger.
Strength > Range
Winner = Sword
A whip isn't an animate object. Neither is a sword.I think a whip because its ranged and you can trip people up.
Not gonna get much grip, it will slide off the blade.Throw the whip, wrap around the sword with it, then pull the whip to pull the sword to you.
Conclusion: Whip wins.
It doesnt really matter, he cant kill you with the whip, he can only wound you... When punishing people with whips in the early days of humanity, people bled out, they didnt die because the whip impaled them. Plus, you assume that the person with the sword doesnt just bum rush you.This guy is at the ren faire by where I live every year, and I think he can convince you otherwise.

Then on a hilt. It wouldn't slide of if the hilt's wings is blocking the path of the bladeNot gonna get much grip, it will slide off the blade.
They can still bleed to death if constanly smacking them with the whip, however it is slower then swinging a sword a couple of times ir even one.It doesnt really matter, he cant kill you with the whip, he can only wound you...

It takes 2 mins on average to bleed out and die if somehow this whip breaks your skin and severs a major artery. Whip loses, plain and simple. i am sprinting at you with a sword, you get maybe 1 whip in by the time i reach you. Then i can sever a limb, slice and dice you up, ect. you simply cannot win here, there is a reason that Warfare never had a random leather whip being used.They can still bleed to death if constantly smacking them with the whip, however it is slower then swinging a sword a couple of times ir even one.
Most swords in history look like this:Then on a hilt. It wouldn't slide of if the hilt's wings is blocking the path of the blade
The ring thing that is apart from the hint could be latch onto it with the whip. Also the umbrella thing or whachamacallit below could be latch on around it without still slipping onto the blade.Most swords in history look like this:
The Hand-guard is literally touching your knuckle, you aren't going to wrap anything around that. and the ring is from the sheeth not the actual sword.The ring thing that is apart from the hint could be latch onto it with the whip.
