They weren't all made available across the board. The reason given was that the Broadsword model's handle was two short to be used in Katana's two handed grip.

Sorry man. Katana kinda got the short end of that stick.

Meh, the katana still has the best vanguard design of the three so it's not such a great loss.
A lot of the swords Broadsword and Dual Blades get would be wonderful additions to Katana/Ninja Blade's repertoir. My own personal most-wanted feature for CoH is to be able to use the "Longsword" model with Katana. I'm kind of obsessed with it... It is to me as animated hair is to GG.
Unfortunately, for most of the models the handle is indeed too short to accommodate the two-handed grip of Katana. Still, I yearn for the day when some kind dev will take some time out to lengthen the handles and make available these fine weapon models for us two-handers.
On a completely unrelated note, check muh post count. It's not the amount, it's the number.

Oh and I agree, that sword would look cool for a Katana.

I don't see a shred of evidence to back that up.

This thread seems a bit dull to me.

So for a long time I wanted to use the different Vanguard swords on different weapons types. IE the Broadsword for the Katana, the Katana for the Dual blade sword etc.
I even suggested it a few times.
Then it happened and I was happy. It seemed like any sword class could by any vanguard sword from the vanguard store.
Now I went on to check my Katana Stalker's Vanguard merits and see what I needed to do to buy him the Broadsword and the option is gone.
Did I miss something, is this feature no longer available? Was it a bug that got fixed or was it something that is supposed to be there but is in error now?
