I've always been able to stick the blade of the sword in between the minifig's wrist and waist with a little effort. Of course his arm has to be almost straight down at his side, so he can't really do anything else with that hand. And he looks a lot (...) (24 years ago, 11-Jul-00, to lugnet.castle)
