Unique Toys Ordin Siegfried Double Sword Converter

This is a double sword staff converter (is that a thing?) that allows you to plug both of Unique Toys Siegfrieds swords end to end for a weapon to be used by Ordin.
As the internal hole is a standard 5mm plug, you can actually insert just about any weapon you like - bear in mind though that is is pretty big (38mm long and 11mm diameter) so is intended to be held by a Gestalt.
I've done two versions - this one is a more generic hatched grip style - I used samuri sword grips as inspiration for this one.
The attached renders are just to show how I pictured it once painted by the user (obviously, paint it how you like though.) NOTE: swords are not included!!!
I picked black as a default material as I felt it eliminated the need for a base coat of black paint, thereby reducing paint thickness. White is there too if you choose a different colour scheme.
