And swords generally have the ability to block and parry, a property that Plastubes tend to lack.

Tubes of plasma aren't known for their ability to cut things, though.

Use your metafor centre.

Plasword sounds like it's made out of plastic.
It sounds like a weeaboo term for a plastic sword. "Purasoodo."

Obviously "Kinetic separator" is a much better name.

Reminds me of a fantasy series I read once, where swordsmen were sometimes referred to as 'blade-splicers' or 'splicers of men'.

That doesn't even make sense, splicing is a form of joining elements together.

We are doomed. It's just that whatever is going to kill us all just happens to be, from a scientific standpoint, pretty frickin' awesome.

Yes, but the word itself means "split".

I'm positive that a 'plastic sword' is much more representative of the product George sells to kids than the 'not heavy sabre' it is called now.

Lightsaber by a mile. Plasword is just kind of awkward. "Plasma sword" would be more of a contender, though, because 'plasma' beats 'light' while 'saber' beats 'sword'.

Though 'vibroblade' handily beats both of them, naturally.
