Doesn't look like fire (but it looks like bright red lightning XD), try making it have more emphasis,right now it looks like a screenshot (but it isn't)

By emphasis,i meant background and proper zoom
here's some examples so you can use it as a point of reference

Your objects have to be bigger, most of the icon space should be filled.

The handle is way too small and the blade too simple.

I can see that you're trying, but refrain from using that much smudging. It won't give you as good results as if you've drawn stuff with defined shapes.

Anywho, please read the various icon tutorials we have here, and try to apply the techniques. Practice, and you will get better and better.
