Destiny-inspired sword (needs suggestions!)

So I've been wanting to make a sword for the last two years, and once summer vacay hit me I knew it was time to act! So I went to Low's and bought an angle bar, rebuilt a forge I had tinkered with last year, and started beating that sexy red-hot steel. The result was a rather rough, but historically accurate, short broadsword. However after having some trouble with a traditional crosspiece (and lacking a powerful welding torch), I decided to veer into cosplay territory. It's still a fully functioning broadsword (you could take it into battle), but it's got a bit of a modern touch. This is where Destiny comes in: First off, I need a name for it. Weapons in Destiny seem to have witty one-liners or intimidating nicknames. Second, I can still modify it a lot, so is there anything I should do to it to make it more space-ish? (BTW the handle it just some green military nylon for now, I have plans for that) The whole thing (the stick is a meter long): [url]http://i1078.photobucket.com/albums/w489/rabidshrew8u/Sword/null_zpsa11d19b2.jpg[/url] Another view: [url]http://i1078.photobucket.com/albums/w489/rabidshrew8u/Sword/null_zps3a32fad4.jpg[/url] Cheers! Progo. UPDATE! This got bumped, so have a look at the finished deal :) [u]http://s1078.photobucket.com/user/rabidshrew8u/library/Sword[/u]

  • The key to your death. Rage taken form. Danger; Pointy. Dads Butter Knife. My VIP pass. If It's Red You're Dead. Mightier Then Paper. (Related to the Pen is mightier, bit.) Add...uh. Not sure really. :c My only thought would be to make it more smooth and "uniform" for a more modern/future look.
