Sauron Etched (Empty Hilt)

We have the option for your sabers to be weathered, etched or battle scarred.

For the weathering, this means that we take your hilt and make it look like it has had long exposure to the atmosphere, giving it a worn, run down look and a battle used kind of look.

With etching we add a stencil in the design you choose to protect your hilt and then use acid to remove the reamining metal giving a 3D textured pattern on your saber.

Battle scarring requires us to make cuts and gouges to your hilt to make it look like it has been used in combat and been hit by another saber.

Each process requires us to either sand parts of the hilt, add marks, scratches, dents or other battle like scars or by adding paints or chemicals to adjust the look of feel of the hilt.

This is very labour intensive and can extend the lead time and increase the cost of the saber. It can take up to 2 weeks to get your saber customised - this is on top of the normal 2 week production time for the parts, core and assembly of everything.

We do have more information and pictures available on our weathering here

Sabers normally take around 2 weeks to get through production before they are dispatched but this can increase during busy periods.

When your item is dispatched, it normally takes 2-3 days for delivery in the UK and 5-7 days for delivery outside the UK, depending on you delivery location.

Please note any additional customisation to your saber such as weathering and etching will increase the lead time on your order. This can be up to 2 weeks per job.

The majority of accessories, parts and toys are dispatched within a few days after placing your order if ordered alone and without a saber.
