The Damocles Hilt - Etched Simplicity

[Sawyer]

--- The Sword Hung Only By A Thread ---

Hiya friends. Been awhile since i've posted a build- so i figured i would show my new(ish) sparring hilt: Damocles. Maybe there's a few history nuts out there that know the story to the name.

Anyways, here are the specs and the good stuff:

Nano V4
In-hilt recharge port
momentary switch/yellow dot
MHS base parts
Custom powder-coating
Completely custom shroud, with original design etching (Rootkill/PNP method)
RRW LED
A few antique lamp parts (such as the retention screw)

The Glams:











Finally can hang it up next to my old sparring hilt.
Thanks for taking a look guys.

- Cheers!

That’s very nice! Man I wish I could etch like that. I can’t seem to get that kind of detail. Great work!

Thank you! And you definitely can- just takes a bit of work. Have you tried PNP resist etching?
