1 Blades Sword can be found in Delphines Secret Room, 6 on a rack in Sky Haven Temple[Delphine carries 2, Esbern has one](Dragonbane can also be found here), Fultheim in Nightgate Inn carries one. Bolar's Oathblade can be found in Bloated Man's Grotto prior to Hircine's Deadric Quest (probably some time after as well, if you didn't get it before the Quest), Akaviri Sword is carried by Dexion.
- Can be pickpocketed from Dexion (Dawnguard required) It's called 'Akavir Sword', though it's no different to the standard Blades sword.
- A man in Nightgate Inn, (Forgot his name), he will always be there. Can be pickpocketed.
I was about to mention was one on the guy in nightengale inn from day one...
The first actual Blades sword can be got after conversing with Delphine after the horn of jurgen windcaller quest... is one on her weapon rack,
There is Bolar's Oath blade which may be taken from bloated man's grotto really early (not while is active within hircines quests) - Bolar's is like dragonbane in the fact it uses quicksilver to upgrade and is basically same as dragonbane but a different enchantment.
Of course is a ton of Blade swords at Skyhaven.
other than the name, really is no difference between Bolar's, Akaviri, Dragonbane and Blade.

Actually, Bolars oathblade does shock damage, Akaviri is slightly weaker than the Blades sword, and the Dragonbane does additional damage to dragons ...

i was stating that there is no difference, other than the names, between the swords IF you DO NOT consider the Enchantments placed upon them. the enchantments and names make each katana unique, with the exception of the Blades sword since there is roughly a dozen scattered around Skyrim. so do NOT go getting al technical about the little details of the katana. they are irrelevant when it comes to the look of the blade.
again, i say, the enchantments (where applicable) only make each blade 'unique'. if you look at the Blades, Akaviri, Bolar's Oathblade and Dragonbane, they are all the same basic model. at least in the data for Skyrim.
if they have different item codes they are considered unique in that aspect aswell, bolar dragonbane and akaviri all have differing code compared to the basic blades model, even harkons is different coding, therfore outright unique
