The developer says reforging lets you retrieve materials and reinvest them in another weapon.
Are Phantom Edges primary swords?
No. The developer uses Phantom Edges for the secondary-weapon category.

Phantom Blade Zero (PBZ)

How should you compare a newly acquired weapon?

Start with its role rather than assuming that a new drop replaces your current choice. Try its reach, rhythm and recovery against familiar opposition. Keep a short note about which situations feel comfortable. That gives you a more useful basis for choosing upgrades than a ranking that lacks difficulty, version or encounter context.

Can you recover upgrade materials?

S-GAME Studio confirms a reforge route that returns materials for another weapon. Check the current upgrade interface for the exact operation before confirming it. The practical advantage is flexibility: you can test a different approach without treating an earlier investment as an instruction to keep using a weapon you no longer enjoy.

How do boss fights expand your arsenal?

Most weapons are described as rewards from defeated bosses. Record the equipment you receive after an encounter, then test its moves before comparing it with your current pair. Keep acquisition notes separate from a preference ranking: a weapon being new does not by itself establish that it is better for your next fight.
