Which was always stupid. Shingen had no explanation at all for being able to stick in combat with someone like Logan. And Shingen's sword had no reason at all to be able to resist getting sliced and diced by Logan's claws.

But that's not the first or the last time that trick/trope/cliché has been used in fiction.

But that was low-end Logan by far: earlier in the mini, Logan was beaten nearly to death by the same guy wielding a freaking bokken. Yes, a normal dude with a wooden practice sword nearly killed Wolverine, who absolutely had a healing factor, skills that let him fight Captain America without being decisively beaten and an adamantium skeleton at that time.
