I have a customer Who wants a pen that looks like a sword with a pirate sword on the clip and I'm stumped. Looking for pirate sword clips and ideas on how to make a pen that looks like you are taking a sword out of a sheath. Writing part with a silver sword looking blank. Any ideas or suggestions or tips or tricks?

There was a collaboration between myself and 4 other turners and we came up with this design. It fits your description really well. Only difference is we went with a broad sword instead of pirate sword. I would contact Mike Redburn and discuss the option of having a sword clip made. The rest of the work is all custom.

Here's one I did years ago. Carved in silver. Think the hilt is pointing the wrong way, but the idea is there.
