It was taken from a corrupt eladrin king in a cursed castle trapped in space and time. In the same castle in the normal flow of time they had also discovered the broken tip.They finally found/invented a way to pay for the Repair ritual (5000gp) which turned the weapon into a +3 fullblade. The whole party was involved in the ritual, sacrificing blood cut with the jagged tip they wanted to attach, and tuning their unwanted magic items to have the residuum drawn out of them directly and into the sword being repaired. Evertone got into a circle and held hands while the cleric performed the ritual (rolled the dice)  It was very cool and memorable.The tip can now fly off as a daily power so the wielder can make a melee attack with a reach of 5, before flying back on. It makes the sword unique, and special and a real in game story built around it. Not to mention he's the only PC with a +3 weapon so far.How do I/we imagine it. Well he's spent a feat on learning how to wield it properly, so it isn't a useless overly large hunk of metal. He is a goliath, so he's well over 6ft himself. In my head it looks like the sword of War in Darksiders. Almost his size, but wielded with great skill and mastery. It's not sheathed, it clips in and out from an attachment on the back of his armour with the twist of the wrists.</blockquote>
