Yes I know that Icelander but If I were going writeup a sword construction system Id do it with generic names and innovation by tech level. Mostly the low tech version of technology in gurps is not very generic. As a result you must Wade through a lot of history and culture to get to the game stats. A generic weapon building system would make an excellent product, IMO.
