We can wrap the hilt of your sword if you would want to send it to us.
The labor fee for wrapping the hilt is included in the selection of "Hilt Wrapping" and should be added to the cart. Additionally, you will need to decide which of our available hilt wraps to choose.
We offer a variety of wraps, including ones made with real Italian leather.
To keep the wraps firmly attached to your handle, they are bonded in place. It is possible to remove the wraps, however doing so could leave glue residue behind and cause harm to the wrap itself when peeled off.
Please go to checkout if you are satisfied that you have chosen the right alternatives. A shipping fee will be charged to you in order to cover the expense of returning your saber to you.
You would then be responsible for covering the cost of shipping your sword to our address.

We will return your saber as soon as possible when the packaging is finished, though it may take a few days depending on how busy we are.
Please be aware that any customized sabers, such as those with weathering, battle scarred, exposed wiring, engraving, or wrapping, cannot be returned.
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.
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.
