enjoy: This icon lacks highlights and shading. Also, it needs more detail. Try zooming in on a part of the sword, to show the details more. Also, try looking at some metal tutorials.
You need to practice more, so I will reject this icon. You should try showing your drawings to people in the chat or in the art forum, and get critique, and let them tell you when they think you are ready to upload an icon.

I think it more looks like an enchanted dagger rather than a sword.

My suggestion would be to work on the flames, it looks a bit strange. And while you're at it don't forget to upload an ATC version as well, increasing the chance of it being more useful.
