📋 About This Mod

I really loved the curved dragon greatsword, but to me it looked like it had a slab of rock for a blade.  This was my attempt to clean up the blade and make it actually look metal, and now it is nearly mirrored, but the color of the blade is actually black.  The hilt and dragon were lightened and had the contrast increased to make it easier to distinguish, and it is now more of a white dragon.

This is my first mod that I am posting, forgive me if you notice any issues with it, but please feel free to tell me so that I can post an updated version.
