So I was playing my Archmage and got Bladed Rift from a unique boss. After summoning the blade a couple of times it dropped a t4 artifact sword. And then another one. And another one.
It seems that when the blade expires, an artifact drops with some probability. Now I'm sitting on a pile of artifact swords (including randarts).

interesting. I have that item as well and have not seen artifact swords drop from the summon upon it's death. I should test that out a bit more, I didn't use it extensively

I've received artifact swords from it. Since it drops only blades, perhaps it's intended?

I've heard the same thing reported with the Orc spirit summoned by the Garkul set. Possibly others, but nothing I can remember just now.
