I can not find any grip of the sword in this kit!.
There are only blades, guards and pommels.

How come?

    I don't see any specific figures mentioned in the product page, perhaps it does not come with any hand poses? 

    While I don't know what the designer intended (and perhaps I'm just overlooking a pose, although I don't see one either) there are so many figures available it would be hard (and possibly very expensive and time consuming) to support them all.  For example would you purchase V1,V2,V3,V4,Genesis1,Genesis2,Genesis3,M1,M2,M3,M4,all the kids, all the Aiko and Hiro figures, etc. and make poses for all of them?  And that's just the DAZ figures, not all the other available ones.  Or would you just pick one of those figures (and if so, which one would you pick? Just whichever figure you own?)  It's great when poses are included of course, I'm just suggesting one possible reason why they might not be.

    Do you own any other swords that do come with hand poses for whichever figure(s) you want to hold it?  Or even other objects with a similar grip, like a spear, or an oar, or a pole. Those poses, while not exact, might still be close enough to use as a starting point so it will be less work to pose the hand than it would be to do it from the beginning.

    Thank you, sriesch.

    I mean that the "grip" is missing.
    This is a construction kit of sword that it should come with "blades", "guards", "pommels" as well as "grips".
    But I can not find any grip in the kit!！

    Oh!  I misunderstood.  It's called BaseHandle.cr2 , and it's in Runtime\libraries\character\Swordkit  (although I may have an older version of the product installed that has since been updated.)  Run a search for BaseHandle.cr2 in the Content Library's search field and you should find it.

    It is under "figures" while the others are under "props"!！

    The others are under "props".

    As I recall it is a figure (an item with bones) while the others are props that attach to the figure. It's an older item and was built to work with Poser 4 or so, which had limits on how file types were handled.
