The Hilt Design for every Silver Sword is the same...? Regardless of inventory image?

I was slightly disappointing by the lack of variety in the hilt of the swords, especially the silver swords, until i began to notice the steel swords match their inventory image counterpart, while the silver swords don't, regardless of what the inventory image shows, the in game sword on Geralt's back will always look like the generic silver sword you start with. So i began to wonder if its just me or if others have noticed this problem too. The best example I can think of is the "Serpentine Silver Sword" (which isn't serpentine shaped by the way, and after being crafted is the "Viper Silver Sword") The Inventory image is akin to Vesemir's swords at the beginning of the game, except Vesemir's has Wolfs were this has vipers. However thee In-Game Sword is well, Disglair like.Has anyone else noticed this, or is this a reoccuring thing?I tried adding pictures, but I couldn't get CDPR's Imager file manager to work with me.

I have this same problem. Don't know if it's a bug or game design. But it is not good. The hilts in the pictures look awesome, but when you equip them its the same generic hilt evey time.

It seems you haven't encountered any Relic silver swords since most of them have rather unique look, however all of them, so far, have slanted(?) guards but with different versions.

Just off the top of me head, I've had one with a v shaped guard and one with a semi circle. The one I'm using now has a what I can only describe as jointed semi circle, in that it's made of three straight pieces.

There seems to be a little variety on the dreaded hexbox at least.

I have this with the Witcher's Steel Sword and Velen Longsword. The appearance of both swords correspond to the Velen Longsword icon. The Temerian Poniard is different and actually looks like its icon, but the Witcher's Silver Sword is just another generic sword with brown hilt.
