I agree that it doesn't exactly scream Terraria but I think using a weapon (also a tool) is more justified in Terraria than it would be in Minecraft. The reason being Terraria has more focus on fighting monsters. And it is a more unique item than for instance the Pickaxe and the Work Bench, which probably originate from Minecraft (Crafting Table.) Basic? It has a nice detail to it, with contrast colors. The Work Bench however has very little detail to it, so I find that more basic looking.
