True, but keep in mind the Dragonslayer, Kliff's weapon, can channel lots of ki, plus, He can also use Earth magic (I think.), also, in Guilty Gear standards, before his death, he's been fighting similarly sized gears like Sol Badguy has. Though, even without a blade, Sagara can still fight with physical prowess, though I don't think it's possible for Kliff to lose his grip on the Dragonslayer, and fixing a weapon takes too long in sheer combat, so either Sagara has his blade survive, or he's stuck with his bodily combat skills. Don't worry, though, Sagara has been reverted to a potential opponent, so we'll see soon enough.
