I was looking though some of the craftible weapons, and was thinking the naginata should be included.
Sounds like the same physical composition as the metal spear; a knife on a stick.
Could be added alongside to the katana and broadsword.
Lawnmower halberd. Same thing.
Honestly though that lawnmower halberd should get a medium block chance.
