Even worf seems to agree, by Picard s3 he has a sort of batleth / katana hybrid instead of a classic one. Though I think he already said in DS9 that he actually prefers the mekleth.
It’s a Mek’leth (modified in PIC S03), which he has stated before is his preferred weapon. He even uses it in The First Battle of Deep Space Nine to defend against the attempted Klingon invasion.
It's worth noting, too, that Worf is an in-universe badass even by Klingon standards. He easily takes out Duras. He won a major Bat'leth tournament in Parallels. He beats Gowron to the floor in Apocalypse Rising. Later in the Dominion War, he takes on every single Jem'hadar in a prison and beats them all, which Mar'tok can't help but be impressed by. Late in the war, he beats and kills Gowron easily.
If Worf says the Mek'leth is better, then we should take his word for it.
Also, Gowron is a chump ass bitch and I'm tired of pretending he's not.
I don’t recall Worf ever saying that the Mek’leth is better, simply that he personally prefers it.
You are correct, however, on all of the points, except for the fact that he didn’t quite beat Gawron so easily.
