Speculations Why couldn’t Shanks have Black Blade?

[NexusLord]

I think people make a lot of assumptions about Shanks and Mihawk while having very little supporting facts. Confirmation bias leads them to make circular logic such as Shanks can't have a black blade because he's not strong enough and he's not strong enough because he doesn't have a black blade.

This is some nonsense lol

Maybe Shanks didn't make a Black Blade but Mihawk didn't lose an arm, naaanaaaa!

The very very very strongest forge a black blade, Shanks is one step below

Shanks too stronk without it.​

As Onimaru said to Zoro, black blade is achieved through many battles. Ryuma and Mihawk are both wandering swordsman who fought duels with top tiers for decades (possibly centuries for Mihawk).

Shanks and other Yonkos didn't have much competition in their eras and only face 1-2 max.
