Using my imagination I would say that the sword is enchanted with the skeletal remains of some creature which takes care of the blade so as you are never without it. Just picture picking up the sword and the legs folding in nicely

oh - I thought the legs were a display stand for the sword.... Whatever, it's looking pretty cool.

Arann you are right , The legs are display stand for the sword .
there are 2 parts the legs and the sword. So the sword is standing on the display stand ( the legs). And he is blended with the sceleton (the head and the spine ) And the spine is more like teeth so it's litrely tearing flesh of his victims.

looking nice from here.

would the legs snap into the body when it was lifted up about to be swung? maybe some magnets in the bones would do the job?

I don't understand what are you trying to say.

if it was going to be more than a display model, e.g, an actual weapon then the legs would be in the way. I was just theorising how you could deal with it

This is a really good model, I just read all the way through the posts, nothing I can say that hasen't been said yet

and to clear up how the sword is used, for those of you that seem a bit confused.

The ribs, and legs are one piece. the sword is another piece that sits in the rib and leg stand to hold it up, they're like a cradle for the sword, so the legs and/or ribs wouldn't get in the way if the sword were actually used.
I also think on page 5 (I think) that there was an image showing the sword, then showing it resting in the legs and ribs cradle. Hope that helped clear it up for people.

Edit: Yes it was on page 5, and if you missed it, this is the pic I was talking about
