[dc] is there a reason speedsters don't use blades?

As far as I can tell none of them do, is there a reason given? Do the blades break? Mind you there are "bad" speedsters and they don't have them either. It just seems like blades or even something but like a telescoping club would make them many times more combat effective.

There have been one or two speedsters who use things like knives and swords to deadly effect.  However, despite appearances, they're exerting themselves as they run and it might screw up their running form to be holding a knife or a sword.
