Title: Ultra cool swords!!!

If you want to see them swing correctly, you must make the center of their clipping rectangle on the desired rotation point (usually the hilt).

Also, if the blade you want to use doesn't happen to be correctly oriented in the sprite, it's easier to rotate the sprite image externally.
