Guild Wars 2

I saw this recipe at a karma vendor in Wayfarer Foothills yesterday and I was so intrigued I bought it.
I see that wooden swords are for sale on the TP as well.
Does anyone know the purpose of this? Is it just a low lvl sword, used in creating a recipe or what?
It makes no sense to sell the recipe for karma if it has no use
Any have any ideas?
going to go craft it now.

I don’t know what the wooden sword does, but why not?

I’d burn karma for novelty items if I had no other use for them.

Sounds like a Minecraft reference

new legendary: Epic wooden sword. It shoots splinters… i guess.

It’s a very cute looking play sword. The skin is funny and epic. I plan on transmuting it onto a level 80 exotic for several of my characters.

@ Drunken MadKing- hahahaha! yes, I crafted it and it is rather cute- it would be hilarious to to that!
Stat wise in case you were wondering it is just a standard beginner sword so you could use it as a weapon if you wanted.
Thanks for the replies.
