All the Seven Swordsman get like awesome abilities like, exploding tags and chakra absorbtion and chakra molding...

But what does Zabuza get?

A freakin' blade that rebuilds with blood. Like what? Your sword has to break to use it's effect? Laaaaaame.

So my question is, was it useful for anything else? Because otherwise... It might as well just be a sword.

Also, on a side note, could you all check out my profile to see if the intro text is visible? I can't tell if it's just not showing up on my Iphone or what. Thanks.

Let's look at the big picture here in a thousand year's when the other 7SM blades have rusted away Zabuza's blade will still be going strong.

The reason why is obvious...it had the been the first of the seven swords shown and appeared at the beginning of the series where ideas were only being aroused in Kishimoto's mind...of course it is to become inferior in comparison as Kishimoto became better and progressed with more appealing, interesting, and complicated ideas.

Who cares if it will last that long, they can always make a brand new one.

I'd ratehr take an ability that is usefull for battles such as chakra absorption rather than a replaceable sword that will last.

Don't worry, just ignore the fact that its name comes from the fact that the holes in the sword are supposed to fit over the victims head and sever it...

[Edit] Did any of you do research on the Seven Ninja Swordsman's weapons? They can all regenerate. It's not just a power of Kubikiribocho...

The Executioner's Blade is actually pretty cool. It isn't indestructible, but none of the swords are. Unlike the other swords, though, it can repair itself.

Most of the Seven Swords are kind of lame. One is little more than a giant needle with thread. Another is just a big axe with a hammer, and yet another is just a roll of explosive tags. Anybody could make a roll of explosive tags. Plus, I'm fairly certain that all of the swords (except Samehada) can channel electricity, since they are all made of metal.

I disagree. The Kubikiribōchō may not be as powerful as the others, but it ain't lame! The sword can rebuild itself and make sure it's always in top condition as long as it gets blood. The other swords can be broken and thrown in disrepair, and logically most of them will need to be sharpened. Not Kubikiribōchō!

It's a massive, heavy chunk of iron (I think....) that makes the user need incredible strength to use. Zabuza had mastered it to a degree where he throws it like a boomerang! Meanwhile Suigetsu can barely wield it.

While the other swords all have some special advantage to them, and Kubikiribōchō's may look . .terrible in comparison, I think it's actually rather good. I can't remember who stated it, but when the Swordsmen were revived it was stated that half their power was their swords.

That's more than likely not the case for Zabuza, the Kubikiribōchō gives him little advantage in battle other than it being a sword. It improves his natural abilities, such as requiring him to be very strong, and fast. Can't drag the sword behind you, and it won't be good if you miss with a strike and you're left open.

The Kubikiribōchō would also make Zabuza need to rely more on his brain in battle. He can't use some hidden ability at the last minute if he gets in a jam. He needs to use his acquired skill to get out of a tough situation.

So in short, the Kubikiribōchō is NOT lame. It's just not as flashy. It gives the user, or someone who can master it, a very good over all advantage. Even when he is not when wielding it.

Its regenerative ability takes time, wagging a broken sword has no hope to take blood from the opponent anyways, so its close to being useless.
Other swords have ability that make them not break in the first place.
The explosion from Hiramekarei will blow the other sword, and samaheda would absorb the chakra from chakra infused blades instead of allowing it to get sliced like the Executioners blade.
Also there's always swordsmith to fix them.
