Since Yukimura has been around for a while and served under Arima well, I'm sure it's a fine sword, there's just nothing fancy about it aside from it being three parts of a whole as that one anon said (sorry for having to sound so formal mysterious anon~), which kind of makes me wonder what it's like complete.

Sasaki has actually been noted to be an excellent swordsman, enough that Take Squad's boy genious Boujin has expressed desire to learn from him one day, and he's been compared to Arima, so his skills with it aren't the problem. Arima is a genious who's said to bring out any Quinque's full potential soon after using it, so I don't think it matters much what he uses. He can fight with a pen (which he sort of has, at least against his subordinats) and obliterate everything.

Sasaki could probably use an up-grade. From what we've seen with other Rank 1 Investigators, their equipment does look a little better. Not on the same level as Arima's very versatile IXA and the lightning shooting Narukami, but Akira's Fueguchi and Juuzou's Jason are obviously much better weapons. With his rank high kill rate, I'm sure Sasaki could get a better weapon if he wanted, I'm actually kind of wondering if he holds on to Yukimura for sentimental reasons. It did belong to "papa" after all.
