Vet Falchion

Any reason to take this over the alternatives? Dueling sword is still nuts, combat blade exists, people like power sword for some reason, axes are solid, and shovel is (and will always be) the best.

I've played with Power Falchion, it's.... fine. I found my self longing for the Devils Claw while playing it. Am I missing something? How do you get the most out of it?
