    The kinda quality for the blades would be a thin metal such as a thin broad sword. I dont want to spen too much but i want something good.

    Mostly for custom blades you are looking at a starting price of $150 for a knife-sized piece, anywhere up to the $15,000 range for swords, really depending on what you want and the design.
    An easy source for info would be Knife World Magazine ( http://www.knifeworld.com ), Blade Magazine, Knives Illustrated, Fighting Knives, or Tactical Knives ( http://www.tacticalknives.com ), publications I read, or here are a few resources online.

    The mags are a good source for custom makers, usually with articles and pictures of their work, as well as contact info. I have several hundred more resources if you need them.
