Swords are Weapons used to defeat Mobs or players (if PvP is on) quicker, but are not required to defeat them. They also can remove several blocks faster than using bare hands, but still uses two uses from the "tool stamina" meter instead of one.
Killing big slimes with a sword will also prevent more slimes from spawning.
