Custom Lego Swords

[iamded]

So I was looking at Saber Scorpion's Nova Refuge Lego, and saw these cool swords. Instead of buying those fancy custom made swords, he customised his own. So I had a go at it. I bought the latest season of the Knight's Kingdom Lego, with the Mistlands Tower and Gargoyle Bridge and what-not. When I bought my first KK set, Border Ambush (rope bridge, spikes, boulder, shadow knight) I thought the 'new' sword was really cool, in metallic blue. But now with all those KK sets (especially Battle at the Pass), I had heaps of those swords. I could sacrifice a few of those boring silver ones. So I did. Here's what happened.

The 2 top left I tried to make the same, but turned out only to be similar. Still, I use them for dual wielding.

The one to the right of them I made for use with a shield. The one next to that was just a unique design, me being creative.

Then we have the dagger. It was supposed to be a short sword, but I kept messing up, and cutting it shorter. So now it's the dagger used to kill Mecha Diablo.

Below it is the original Knight's Kingdom sword, no changes whatsoever. For comparison mainly.

Then below that, is my favourite. I works great for a knight, a bulky sword, especially next to the swords in the new Castle line. Kind of like a broad sword. :-P

If you are shocked by the fact that I 'ruined' perfectly good Lego, well, I did warn you. :-P

Thanks very much for posting this. Your right; I don't like how you have done this, but I was curious at what results you can get. My "favourite" is the bottom one. It looks almost like a Roman short sword now. I also have too many of those swords and I am very glad that Lego have brought in new ones as well as bringing back the old ones.

I don't customize but if you do, try polishing the cut edge until you get a refined look. It will look a lot less butchered.

Yep, that lowest one

Nice. I've always wondered what to do with those excess swords. Now, I know!

Although I never mutilate (in fear of ruining it) lego, These are quite nice.

I think I like the first two that you mentioned the most. The dagger needs removing of the crosstrees, I think.

If you'll excuse me, I need to go get my exacto-knife. (razor)

:-D

Yeah, I was gonna cut the side bits off the dagger, but I left them, to make it 'unique'. Although I guess it just looks strange. Oh well, it's supposed to. It's an ancient and magical dagger. :-P
