So I made a bat'leth out of foamboard for about $15 dollars and I'm going to use it for my costume which I'll be wearing to an upcoming convention, and it was pretty easy and simple to make.
I made a video of how I made it:

Basically, I made a grid on the foamboard so that my design could be symmetrical(I made the sword of Kahless), and then I cut it out and spray painted it. Then I used string for the handle(tied in half hitches), and it turned out really nice.
