Are you referring to the Ritevice sword mentioned by hemmingwayorca? Like I'd said, putting its textures onto this sword would be impractical since the models are completely different with completely different texture layouts, and even if I shaped things to fit there's no guarantee it'd actually look good. I'd be better off redoing the current textures in 4k, but personally I find 4k to be a bit overkill for weapons which is why I always do the textures in 2k.
was wondering if i could get these textures from this mod Ritevice - Sword of Stendarr https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/34666?tab=description
How do you mean? Putting the textures from that sword onto this one or vise-versa? That'd be very difficult because the models are completely different and the textures are built for their models; if you just assigned Ritevice's textures to the Witchking sword as-is you'd get a mess like this:
You'd have to use a program like GIMP or Photoshop to reshape the textures to fit the other sword, which has no guarantee of making it look good since different sections of the texture will be different sizes, so you'd run the risk of bits looking low-res because they were smaller on one texture and had to get scaled up to fit the other. And that's just for the diffuse map, you'd have to rebuild the _n and _m maps as well.
I'd have to get permission from the author, and seeing how it hasn't been ported yet, chances are anyone who's asked either hasn't gotten a response or was denied permission. Apparently though it's on Bethesda.net.
Just in case it's still relevant, or anyone else is looking: Isilmeriel was kind enough to officially import! https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/14316?

both need to be resaved in SSE ck PLUS you need to convert the meshes through nif optimizer. only takes 5 minutes (because ck takes forever to load :P) and it's really worth it.
