Corrupted Ashbringer Resurfaces in Patch 10.1.5: Fractures in Time
A new version of the Corrupted Ashbringer has appeared on the Dragonflight Patch 10.1.5 PTR, as a quest item! It's unclear exactly what it will lead to, but the flavor text suggests it's connected to the machinations of the Infinite Dragonflight. Before getting your hopes up though, it seems very unlikely that this quest will lead to earning the actual item again. Blizzard has repeatedly commented on the exclusivity of rewards, going so far as to state outright that the Corrupted Ashbringer would not be reintroduced as an earnable cosmetic/transmog reward.
Group Interview with Ion Hazzikostas They want to add ways to get appearances that exist in the game that are no longer available / have never been available back into players' hands.

It could be a part of the Patch 10.1.5 campaign and upcoming Dawn of the Infinite mega-dungeon, or it could be associated with the new rewards from Naxxramas — which seems to be receiving a similar treatment to Zul'Gurub in Patch 10.0.7. Only time, through the machinations of the Infinite Dragonflight, will tell.
