One of the things I love about my production saber designs is that they are a kind of blank canvas for me to do some really unique and artful work. This is a Badaxx saber upgraded with the latest tech from Plecter Labs. It has my dragon scale etching pattern, along with some battle damage and […]

I aimed for subtle weathering that showed the saber has been cared for but well used. The R/R/G/Rb Quad Cree LED and dark styled etching make this […]

It required a very special design that would work with the curve and flow of the saber. This FireVine etching is influenced by Celtic […]

I’ve included a pic of the time consuming process of painstakingly masking off the […]
