Well with the new `Nid Codex coming out and giving Boneswords back to Warriors, but with no kit available for them, people are wondering where to get them from. I just figured I'd make a quick tutorial on how to make them cheap and easy. First things first, you need a pair of Scything Talons from the Warrior kit.



Cut the hands off at the wrist, do a little trim on the base of the blade so it's not so thick, and them glue the hands back on to the opposite arm, with the blade pointing up. You now have Super Cheap, Super Easy Boneswords.



If you want them to look a bit less like Scytals, cut some nocks into the outside of the blade and sharpen the thing up. Super Cheap, pretty Easy Boneswords.



With a bit more time and a small investment in money, get some Plasticard. I recommend .080 x .250 strips for my ideal width and thickness. Curve, nock and sharpen it same as the Scytal, but with more material to play with, and presto, pretty Cheap and pretty Easy Boneswords. I based the shape of this off the Tyrant's.

Well I kind of moved near Toronto, actually.

That is amazing work, dude. Especially since Scy-tals are maybe not as good as they used to be.
