To draw a sword, you start with the base first and then do the blade. Keep the lines dead straight for a sharp appeal. Color the drawing with some light colors, and you are done.

Start with the bottom

Draw a hook like base for the sword.

Give it a joint

It will come in use later.

Add an extension

That is to fit the hand.

Give it a smooth look

Use a sharp pencil for this.

Add some designs

Keep them as simple as possible.

Draw the edge

Keep it thin like a hair.

Do the top

The top must be pointy.

Bring it around

Complete drawing the blade.

Add some final touches

A few lines will do the trick.

Darken the outlines

Use a dark pencil for this.
