For real though, Orochimaru was feared in many different ways, kenjutsu being one of those reasons his movements with the blade are unpredictable if you take into account of his fighting style.
Yeah, guy just spits out a long azz snake, and while it's still going, the snake spits out a long azz sword like 🤢 I don't even want to fight anymore 😅
Gekko had a sword, and it was mentioned that he learned his techniques from another Leaf shinobi. There are sword users in Konoha, they just don’t get much of a spotlight and stay as background characters

It doesn't really seem like there is a reason why Konoha doesn't use swords imo. Seems like it had been more of an Uchiha affinity to begin with seeing as the filler that showed Sasuke in the Uchiha police force showed Uchiha police naturally carrying swords as a weapon. It even makes sense for them to be efficient with swords since their Sharingan would help out a lot with precision in battle. I like to believe that the Anbu are specially trained in every field to some degree, which explains their usage of swords. And in the pre-founders era they probably used swords to conserve chakra since techniques back then would have been less optimized for chakra conservation. Fights between the Uchiha and Senju often lasted hours, if not a whole day, so utilizing weapons over ninjutsu makes sense, especially considering the Uchiha clan having less chakra than the Senju did in general. Plus, they were more like samurai than ninja in that era, so the sword wielding looked and felt more normal for their styles of battle back then. Even when Madara got his fan he still dual wielded a sword in some scenes. Uchiha just seem to like swords.
The Uchiha could also more easily learn advanced sword techniques from others by using their Sharingan copy technique, meaning if they won over a skilled kenjutsu user they could add their moves to their repetoire and share them with other Uchihas. The base Sharingan really encapsulates knowledge is power.

Modern Leaf Shinobi tend to favor the use of smaller blades like Kunai and Asuma's trench knives, with only a select few specializing in the use of swords such as Kakashi (who wielded his father's blade as a kid, as an Anbu, and Zabuza's Executioner Blade during the war)! Hayate Gecko and his Anbu girlfriend also utilize swords! While his use occurred after his defection, Orochimaru also wielded a sword and trained Sasuke to wield one, with Sasuke passing his knowledge to Boruto! I also remember a Naruto video game that focused on wielding swords as part of its story with Naruto wielding one prominently in artwork and screenshot for the game!
He is talking about adult Sasuke who can even take otsutskies in 1v1 ofcourse teen Sasuke wasn't that skilled in kenjutsu but adult Sasuke is the best kenjutsu user in his verse( now it's boruto)
I'm sorry so a 16 year old got beat after fighting his own brother and just getting use to his own power against a more "experienced" Shinobi. Wow 😮 who would have thought sasuke would lose even though he kept up with him some what. 🤦 I don't understand the downplay to sasuke's name.
He assassinated them,not fought them and even if he fought them they were unarmed Stating that as a good swordsmanship feat is like saying that I'm a better fighter than prime Mike Tyson because I blindsided him with a crowbar
@@dark-winged-angel136 He didn't mention good swordsmanship. All he said is that Itachi used a sword as well but wasn't mentioned amongst the Konoha swords users.
@@pkj2148 I could be wrong but I'm certain the original comment mentioned Itachi's swordsmanship skills,you may not see it now because the comment is edited so what you see is not what I saw a month ago
I’ve always assumed the reason they never used swords and explicitly almost only kunai, is the mental thought and practicality behind it all… idk live by a sword, die by a sword type thing😂 but could just be a skill diff
Orochimaru was one of the greatest swordsman ever and with his sword he was absolute incredible In a episode of Boruto he fought with a sword and it was stunning
Uchiha style kenjutsu was not created by sasuke, it was a thing that been around since the Warring States Period. Both madera and Izuna were known kenjutsu users as well as many Uchihas from that time
Sakamo hatakie was so skilled with a sword and his chakra control that he was considered to be the only person in the leaf who could match all three sanin in skill, talent and power
There is no mention of him being the only one. Minato said the Sannin paled in comparison to him. This was probably a younger, not yet at their prime version of the Sannin. Also, both Hiruzen and Danzo were comparable to the Sannin at their prime, so that debunks Sakumo being the only person in the village at that level.
@@pkj2148 according to the official Naruto data books by the time of the third great Shinobi world war he was listed as being stronger than the three of them combined this point in their life would have been age-wise when they were each at their prime power-wise you could say that Tsunade was not yet at her prime and the jiraiya had just reached its prime it's hard to say when or if orochimaru ever actually reached his prime or how many primes he had seeing as you could technically say that his current life in boruto would be him at his prime seeing as he has virtually immortal
In my own head canon, I always believed it was because of the terrain. Entering combat with a full sized sword in land full of trees would be really disadvantageous compared to other villages that are more open. Even if the ANBU do use swords they're smaller to compensate and make sense to use in operations where combat is meant to be discreet while still lethal. I figure the hidden mist and cloud villages have terrain that, while much more open, still allows them to funnel enemies into areas that make using a sword advantageous. The sand doesn't use them because their land is almost completely open, making widespread jutsu, such as wind, a priority. I don't have an explanation for the stone village though.
Asuma Sarutobi Sasuke Uchiha Anko Mitarashi Shisui Uchiha Tobirama Senju Kiba Inuzuka (in filler arcs) Zabuza Momochi (he was originally from the Hidden Mist Village, but briefly interacted with Konoha in the early arcs) Sai (he uses a brush that can transform into a sword-like weapon) Might Guy (in the anime filler, he uses a sword in some battle scenarios Just to name a few from the og series
I think the hidden leaf switched to more stealth and reconnaissance tactics as well as logistics and so hidden weapons like kunai became the standard but some did still use swords like Anbu, Orochimaru, and others. I see the leaf as the most ninja-like of all of the villages.
I would not call Kakashi a swordman. That guy is a polyhistor. His ninja skills cover freakin everything as well. You got a brand new highly specialized state of the art fight move? Show it to Kakashi and he will be like 'That's cute. I used to do that as a kid.'
Chakra natures must play a part in this. Lightning is easy to use with a sword. The very properties of lightning nature chakra is that it improves piercing damage. Lightning chakra would also be easy to use on metallic objects i imagine. So Cloud village, a village primarily composed of lightning users would naturally gravitate towards using swords for close combat. The mist village is famous for assassination and their hiding in the mist jutsu. A sword with good reach seems to be the ideal weapon to use in conjunction with the hiding in the mist jutsu so they are all trained in swordsmanship as well. Leaf village doesn't have a specific style most of its shinobi gravitate to.
I’d like to think that by wielding a sword means to deal in war. By not focusing on the sword at the leaf village, it’s their way of showing that they are on the path of peace than to prepare for another war. After all, that’s why so many villains always target the leaf. Because they want to prove that, that’s a bad idea and that swords continue to be the main instrument of strength but of course the leaf’s continues to be that leader to peace. That’s my logic at least.
