in the real world fully sheathed 2 handers are a pain in the back-side, while they look neat and protect the unskilled from getting cut someone that is used to dealing with that needs/prefers a half sheath. I speak from RL experience I am an actual Master Swordsman, in all seven "types" there are a few schools teaching the real way to use Great/2handers/Horse swords the great huge swings will just get you killed, altho from horseback they are useful. Anyway the old addage of "It's not what it looks like it is what it can do" full sheaths take about 3 times as long to get the sword free (and i am a very fast draw) and as an added point many warriors used only a offset ring or a "collar" to drop their 2 handers back behind them leaving the whole blade free, as blood tends to cause lock-up and most 2 handers tended to keep the blood on the blade (unlike the ultra finished Katanas etc.) have fun stormin the castle and thanks for these blades
would it be possible to add scabbards to these swords? that is quite honestly the only thing that keeps me from using 'em, as i can't make myself use a weapon that magically floats behind my back or at my side. it's just something i have always had issues with really.
did you actually look at the weapons? Clanbringer, Shimsil, Shadowsting, and Dagger of Symmachus all have a sheath like the iron swords, which was the best way to give them one without mixing and matching it with vanilla scabbards. and having the designs and textures clash.
as for the two handers, having full scabbards would be improbable. based on the un sheathing animation. maybe I'll add a sheath to the two handers...maybe.
also as a final note, no scabbards were in the original mod, so I had to improvise as I suck at creating 3d models from scratch.
sorry, i didn't look at all of 'em, i only looked at a few, as from what i have experienced, if some don't have scabbards the rest usually don't. i apologize for my hasty judgment.

Can you please put a link back to the original mod in your description? That would be swell.
