Get Executioner's Sword
Overview

Executioner's Sword is an uncommon two-handed sword from vanilla World of Warcraft. It is a broad, heavy blade with a massive pommel and a plain crossguard — a stark, utilitarian model in the spirit of a city executioner's weapon, with no ornamentation or magical glow. The silhouette is large and easy to read, which makes the sword a noticeable element of any look.
Its only stat is Strength, so it was originally a weapon for low-level warriors and paladins. Today the item is interesting first and foremost as an accessible transmog: you don't need to farm it off bosses — you simply buy it from the right vendor, which makes the appearance one of the easiest to obtain for a low-level "brutal" look.
Source
Executioner's Sword is stock carried by weapon merchants, sold for gold in a limited quantity (after a purchase it returns to the shelves again after a while). The sword is offered by several low-level weaponsmiths and traveling traders in the zones of both factions.
The most convenient and well-known seller is Antonio Perelli, a traveling merchant who walks a loop between Elwynn Forest, Duskwood, Redridge Mountains, and Westfall. Besides him, the sword is stocked by stationary weaponsmiths in Wetlands, Hillsbrad Foothills, Silverpine Forest, the Barrens, Dustwallow Marsh, and other low-level zones.
- The sword is sold for gold — no reputation or event currency is required.
- The stock is limited: if there are 0 in stock right now, wait a little and the supply will replenish.
- Antonio Perelli is constantly on the move, so the easiest way to catch him is on the roads of the route described above.
- Stationary weaponsmiths don't move — you can go straight to them in their town or settlement.
Who It Suits Visually
- It fits the look of a city guard or executioner well — a heavy, utilitarian blade with no ornamentation.
- It harmonizes with dark leather and mail sets in brown-and-gray tones.
- It suits the concept of a mercenary or a strongman rogue, where the weapon looks like a crude working tool.
- It contrasts with ceremonial gilded armor, adding a deliberately "down-to-earth" feel to the look.
Tips
If you're hunting the sword for the appearance, start with Antonio Perelli — a single trader covers several Eastern Kingdoms zones at once.
Didn't find the sword in stock — check another weaponsmith from the zone list or return to the same one a bit later: the supply replenishes.
The sword is cheap, so you can grab the appearance in literally a couple of minutes once you're near the right vendor.
To unlock the appearance, it's enough to buy the sword and add it to your appearance collection — you don't have to wear it or level up with it.
Antonio Perelli's route takes him about a week of in-game time, so if you're unlucky it's more convenient to head to a stationary weaponsmith.
If you play Horde, look for the sword at weaponsmiths in the Horde zones from the same list, not only in Alliance lands.
