The client challenged me to envision a Roman themed saber suitable for an Old Republic Jedi who fought in the Clone Wars. I employed fine acid etching to accomplish a wreath around the buttons and a brass seal of the Republic. I also drew inspiration from the Maximus sword at the beginning of Gladiator, particularly for the ivory coloured grip section.<\/p>\n<p>This saber has the Crystal Focus 8 from Plecter Labs housed in a new GCS Elite metal chassis system which I have just designed. It contains a genuine quartz crystal, and Color Extender board for multicolour blade capability.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Not for sale<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style
