Just wondering if anyone has advice on some conversions for bone swords. Been looking around and didn't find any here. Found a few others on the web but nothing with good instructions.
Thanks in advance.

the cheapest way is to use Scything Talons, flip the talon upside down (so pokey end facing up) at the wrist (you'll need to do some cutting), cut the top flat (like the tyrant's bonesword) and shave down the outer edge so that it resembles a cutting edge.

I used a pair of spinefists and some left over bloodletter swords. Turned out pretty well, just required a bit of trimming down to get it to look right. Also there are a few websites that sell boneswords for both tyrants and warriors

I used a Deathspitter left-arm for the size, a spinefist 'fist' for the hand, and a large Carnifex spine for the blade. It's more of a short-sword, but it goes the trick. They get paired with a tentacle from the Chaos Spawn set at a Lash Whip.

Chapterhouse, Maxmini, Secret Weapons, Paulson Games, Velard and several others sell ready conversion bits.

Those ones lord blackfang posted really do look awesome.
I just stuck part of a large scything talon to the top of a spinefist. The spinefist arms are a bit shrimpy on a warrior, but it's not normally too noticable.
