I do not know what the best, and cheapest, technique is for making Assassin's Creed weaponry. I need to know how to make a sword, a dagger and a spear. If you can help me leave a comment, thanks.

We need more details in order to help. Which weapons exactly? Do you have pictures? What is your craft skill level? What tools do you have to work with? What materials would you consider using? What is your budget? etc.
The more details you give us, the more help we can give you. I feel that foam is easy to work with and shape, but for long pieces it could get floppy. You could also use cardboard to create a basic shape then add bondo to smooth and add detail. If you have the tools and skills then wood will give you good weight and strength. Metals are the strongest but can be the most difficult to work with and can get expensive.
I would think carving foam would be best for the dagger and sword if it is short enough and a wood staff with a foam tip for the spear. I'd take the advice of more experienced members though, as I have never made weapons before.

Quick update: My build skill is low, it needs to look okay and be cheap, it can't brake in a fight scene. i would like the sword of eden, dagger of brutus and any type of spear.
