    - gunmetal and brass paint, all clearcoated
    - saltwater etching in a circuit pattern showing through the grips, with hand painted details
    - custom machined pommel, with brass vent
    - Tri-cree R,G,rB
    - Prizm 5.1
    - KR Sabers 28mm bass speaker

    I am absolutely in love with that blade holder and those grips!! What chemicals did you age your brass with?

    That is just fantastic. The etching looks great, and I love the flat temper proof screws holding the panels on.

    This is some excellent craftsmanship. The brass plates is my favorite part, it's just makes it look so awesome.
