Metal doesn't have to be terribly sharp too pierce flesh. As a 6 year-old, I accidentally stabbed myself with a cabinet handle that was extremely blunt. It's all about the ratio of force applied over an area. The most mall ninja shit sword will still cause potentially fatal injuries, it just wouldn't be a good battlefield weapon.
Maybe just give the burglar a flat side spanking then, go for the knees.
