    Well, he can simply scare them off. Also, this may be not a real sword but rather a collectible from Amazon, that can cut you but also relatevely easy can break down if it meets something sturdy enough like another piece of steel on its way. Basically, it is easier to buy a good military suitable machete rather than a proper sword. So, maybe he uses intimidation factor and doesn’t cut people often.

      If I wave a gun around, I’ll catch a brandishing charge, whether or not I actually plan to shoot anyone, it doesn’t even have to be loaded.
