A bladewringing sword is a typically hiltless sword used in the cult practices of Chaos worshipers. The possession of a bladewringing sword, especially one that has not been registered with the authorities, may be a crime in some jurisdictions.
The sword is held by the hands of a cultist who believes that the sharp blade will bring no harm to his flesh if he is blessed or chosen of Chaos Gods. This is a sign to him and other members of the cult that the Chaos Gods or a particular Chaos God has empowered him. This practice is called bladewringing and is a great honor among worshipers of Chaos but signals inherent depravity among other religions, especially among Arathracians and Incarnandists.
