I am making a heresy era Moritat and want to equip him with twin Falax blades.

A picture of what forgeworld has put out for them can be found here:

I am not to keen on purchasing a whole squad for just one set of weapons so I desire a custom bit or some other bit to use. I have looked all around and only found a ork bit that comes close but before I purchased anything I wanted to run this by you folks so nothing might be overlooked.

Do any of you know where I can find a sword bit that might be a suitable facsimile for a Falax blade? Alternatively, do any of you know of a combination of bits that might offer the same result?

Thanks

The historical weapons those seem to be based upon were called "falcata" (one-handed) and "falx" (two-handed). Searching historical miniature manufacturers' sites with those terms might yield results.

They look a bit like backwards scimitars. Maybe there are some Fantasy swords that could be switched around a bit?
