You would need to create a "weapon" class, perhaps:
/obj/items/weapon/steelblade?
Then how would you program an attack verb?
Perhaps using variables that when you have the steel blade equipped it raises your attack?
You should try looking over some Demos over at the Developers Resources, examine the demos, and try writing your own system based off of the demos. Don't simply COPY / PASTE, you won't learn anything that way.
