How to counter the blades?

Completely new player here. I've been trying Fortnite recently and so far I think it's really fun! (Zero Build because I'm a coward—), but I can't help but feel a little down, and slightly frustrated, when I get bombarded with some guy jumping me with the Typhoon Blade or the Kinetic Blade. What's your guy's solution to this? I know part of it is good awareness, but I don't have that, but I make up for it in pretty good aim.
