How do you transport your blades?

[Jedi Yar Nala]

I guess this also applies to lightsaber hilts too...

Basically I've got three blades for 3 different hilts... if I drag them around to show off all 3 lightsabers... the hilts... problem solved... foamed up aluminum briefcase (reallly cool... pictures later).

Blades... a different story.... wanting suggestions/solutions.....

There are some topics somewhere here with ideas Ray.  I recall some people used a custom made sack with a sling just big enough to slide the blade in.  Han Solo makes some amazing wooden "gun type" cases with foam inside that are perfect also.  I think Raijlin may have purchased one as did a few other members.

I plan to get one of these before the next saber quest.

Yeah... I remember seeing the one with a "frog" that's a pretty cool idea.

Gun bag... that's something to think about....

Did a search... couldn't find it.

NICE find Jango!!!

That might hold my 3 removeable blades!!!

More ideas people?... when you hit the conventions... and travel on planes with blades... how do you transport them?

[Luke S.]

I'll try to find it.  I mislead you a bit.  I said gun bag but it was more of a sock.  A sleeve if you will.   Think sleeping bag for your blade.

I used to use a rifle bag...until I was standing at a bus stop and 2 cop cars pulled up to inspect what I was doing. Now, I just carry them.

Pool cue case. Not so much the hard ones, but the tubular leather ones that can hold more than one.

Here is what I use:  http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=4303558  I have been able to get 9 sabers and blades in it.  It is very durable and when closed the sabers don't slide around.  Plus, it is only $47

Art stores are your friend!

Any hobby/art/craft store worth anything should have these and similar tubes, particularly art stores.  They're cheap and won't get you questions like a rifle case (coming from a gun owner myself, I might add).

The one downside is it tends to rattle unless full of blades.  You could add in some foam bumpers too, also available at a craft store.

I tuck my blades under the back seat of my truck! If I'm really brave I will kidnap my GF's yoga bag! http://cgi.ebay.com/Beautiful-Yoga-Bag_W0QQitemZ190340620830QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item2c512f621e

They hang out the end but keep everything together with the tie at the top.

I use martial arts sword bags I purchase from either my school or near by supply store.  I've used both  the black vinyl like "fold over", and the zip down the side green with brown ends... I prefer the zip down the side ones for easier access...   I can provide links later tonight.  I'm at work now, and the system prohibits certain sites.

I use a telescoping (poster) tube with strap.

The nice hard sided ballistic nylon fishing rod cases are also a great idea.  Usually they come with a shoulder strap too.

See... I knew people had their transport secrets... Keep them coming... don't know which way I'm going... but I love how creative you guys have gotten on this (btw... I might not do the rifle case thing... stopped by cops isn't my thing )
