The whole sentence is: Though impractical, this sword serves to exemplify the 5th century style.

Is this grammatically correct? Do you think it sound alright?

Grammatically correct.

But I might expand/change that a little to say "Though impractical in design, this weapon exemplifies the style of 5th century swords."

Of course, you'd need to explain how it was impractical and how it stands as a typical example for that time period.

Why not make it "Although impractical, this sword serves to exemplify the 5th century." By the way, are you holding the sword when you stated the sentence? Might as well say, "Although impractical, the sword exemplies the 5th centruy."

It sounds fine except for the word "this" in front of sword. I would change that word to "the".
