Weapons Specialization

[Crimson Rose]

So far, I have focussed on my sword at the expense of other weapons. It seems to be the one weapon that is always useful.

However I get the impression that, as you get to the higher levels it's not going to be enough.

Should you focus on one weapon until you have mastered it, or should you try to bring along all weapons you have available equally as you go?

Are there some weapons that you can skip, such as knives and grenades?

I have started a second character as an experiment. So far she only uses sword. She has made it to level 8 Rep and level 9 sword. How far will she get like that?
