I've recently started using swords and I find Venom Veiler an indispensable support for when using them. It's great when there are a healers about.
I''ve also had success with it in Lockdown.
What Should My Next Craft Be?

I would suggest that you
I would suggest that you should get a bomb like an Electron Vortex which can be very good for LD and maybe a Polaris.

my two cents
You don't have every great sword, but you have every great type, so you don't need more swords. You might get Fang of Vog, for its charge attack. You might try a Troika- or Cutter-line sword for fun.
You have very few guns. When used well, the alchemers are extremely powerful --- even to someone used to swords. Polaris is a popular sidearm, and can be fun and effective (and also irritating to your PvE teammates).
You have very few bombs. Voltaic Tempest and Stagger Storm make excellent sidearm bombs for slowing down tough crowds of (for example) fiends. Graviton and Electron Vortex work very well with swords, especially if your party knows how to exploit them.
Defense is less fun than offense. But follow Fradow's advice to finish your Skolver and Vog Cub sets and get Grey Owlite Shield and Crest of Almire or Dread Skelly Shield.

Processing Thoughts of an Absence of Non-Swords
You might like to get a Vortex for clumping enemies for lots of damage. You're also going to want CoA and GOwlite for defensive purposes at some point, unless you're great at dodging and never use your shield for defensive purposes. I would go for an Umbra Driver as a shadow gun, too, which will help you to take out polyps and jellies quickly at range.
Trollaris and Gran Faust may be worth a thought, the former as an utility gun and the latter for PvP purposes (since Acheron's standard attack's range is relatively small).

Please note that I might be a tad biased in my suggestions.
*Cough* Triglav/suda, WHB/DVS, winmillion, electron vortex, and iron slug/callahan *Cough*
Trig and suda are great all rounders, and have smashing charges. WHB and DVS are hilariously fun to mess around with, as is winmillion. Electron vortex is an amazing utility for swordsmen, as you can simply clump the enemies together and spam charges. And Iron slug and callahan are just fun to use, and can be useful if you learn to use them correctly. I've seen plenty of callahans in t3 ld, and iron slug is still due for a buff, so, yeah.

Thank You!
Thank you guys! I'll probably finish up my Defenses first then. After that, I'll probably invest in a GF and Voltaic Tempest.
In that order :
Crest of Almire or Dread Skelly Shield : you need a good shadow shield for harder things
Grey Owlite Shield : you need a good elemental shield for harder things
CTR, DMG and ASI trinkets to mix and match
Gran Faust for LD and to complete your swords choice
Sentenza for C42 as a side-arm
Complete Vog Cub and Skolver : for more freedom to mix and match, and have full resistance against themed levels
