Shipping should be done right away unless it is indicated as a pre-order. If the pre-order option is available, you should expect your saber to be customized for up to 4 weeks before it is shipped.
It's important to remember that every pre-order is made by hand. Due to weathering, battle scarring, and acid etching, your hilt may differ somewhat from the photographs that are given.
Weathering, Etching and Battle Scarring
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 remaining 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.
