For me playing a blade takes away the essential "bardiness" of being a bard. What use is having a bard if they can't use amazing songs? I think bard song is very useful at high levels (I know that this problem with blades can be countered by using HLA's in ToB, but that seems more of a loophole in the game than anything). Also blades are useless at identifying things, a very useful property of bards early on in the game. But in general it depends on your RP style, I think they aren't proper bards but some people think they rock.
