The title says it all. Does all or some of the players in your game have a strong bias for a specific weapon ?

In my gaming group, some of the players are really fond on katanas ( and now that they've seen kill bill, I just don't want to think about it ). Sometime, they just won't stop telling you how good and cool katanas are... :grinbig: Anybody in the same situation ?
