No, she was like "Ah! I hate you keva!"

Heh

Judging by Eb's preference for bows, I would assume close range attacks with a sword to be a weakness. It can outreach the knife that any sensible archer has on their person, while still being close enough to render a bow obsolete.

Ahh, but what if they have two knives? Then the swordsman might be in trouble. Of course, if it was an angry axeman, then you'd probably have to try to distract them, throw both knives, then run like Gorlog's chasing after you.

An archer would have to put the bow away, then draw both knives, leaving the swordsman a window of opportunity to go for the kill.

No, she was like "Ah! I hate you keva!"

Well, hate is a strong word

[One-Eye the wildcat]

Well, the two first things I did after getting shipped with Russa is shoot Del, then myself, so...

[Sebias of Redwall]

No, she was like "Ah! I hate you keva!"

Gracious...

A Ranger would almost certainly be quick enough. Remember that they probably have a Ranger horse with them.

indeed, plus Eb could just fly away....

Or one could just drop the bow...
Besides, just because I've never mentioned being skilled with a close range weapon doesn't mean that I'm not.
Edit: Also good point Lass.
