Alternative Titles: Now What Would This Be Called... The Unconnected Master Sword?

So; finished the second piece of the Master Sword last night; now I have the handle and the blade done(Though I notice the blade still needs some more work. Ah well, can't get everything perfect until it's all finished anyway. =P); still no textures, though to make the parts look better, I put some materials on the objects; purple colouring for the handle and hilt, and a silver....ish... colouring for the blade, with a little mirroring for the moment, so it looks like it's made of metal.

Of course, since I'm only working on the hilt now(This oughta be fun...), I only have a handle and blade, both of which are unconnected, though it's really beginning to resemble the Master Sword. But, since it doesn't have the pattern on the blade yet, I'm half tempted to make two hilts; one unpowered, and one true form. =P

Also, I asked the question on my status update yesterday, but for the engraving on the blade, and the gem; are they visible from both sides of the sword, or just one side? It's important to when I go to texture everything. =/(Have no real clue how I'll get the engraving on the blade aside from cheating and making a separate object for that. =P Gem should be easy, though it'd be a similar situation.)
