The others are all haven't really managed to get over their own selves.

Let's look at Mikey. He would probably be on a level with Leo, but (and that's a really big but) he's goofing around. So instead of focussing on a fight, he thinks of a witty thing to say or a funny move to do. His mind is not in the fight. It needs a really good reason for him to actually concentrate, to actually put his mind into the fight. His self pushes through.

If we look at Raph, we see that he lacks control over his anger (his self). He has enormous amounts of strength, but he forgets all the training when he's all "Grrahhh!".

Donnie is just a more peaceful nature, I see him not as a fighter like the others. Sure the others are more or less fighters, but Donnie isn't. He knows everything the others know as well, but he uses it completely different. Whereas Leo goes for the kill (as seen on numerous occasions), he even hesitates to injure. That's probably his weakest point.

To me, it's not about the weapon or the arm, it's about the mind.

Well said Anarky. It's all about the Nninja who posseses the arm that weilds the weapon.
