Decent, the shading looks good, but the structure of the blade and the hilt seems a bit odd. Add a bit more curve to the blade, a little more thickness to the blade and handle, then see if the hilt still seems a bit off.

is this your first design?
some things you might be interested in considering are proportions (blade to hilt, to understand this better try looking at some real life swords, not many have blades that are like 10x the size of the hilt), structure (how will the blade's shape and location in relation to the centerpoint (ie. hilt) affect the overal efectivness of the weapon), and you don't always have to do something overly creative, keep it simple at first, practice shading, and it'll come to you over time, took me a year to teach myself how to do pixel art, now it's second nature.
