Hi Everyone,

With the World Wide premier of the new Star Wars: Rebels series, we at Force Relics, decided it was time to launch our Kanan saber. What you see here is the Proof of Concept we have been working on for the past half year. No electronics are installed yet, but we are working on this in the very near future. We hope to have a fully working hilt very soon, with a lot of Crystal Focus goodness of course!

The glams:

looks good!

I have the holster rig in design/prototype phase at the moment.  How does this look hanging from a Saber Hook?  I could send you guys a hook if you want to make sure the d-ring functions correctly

Awesome!!! I'm interested... 

I realize it may be too much to achieve, but it would be very clever to be able to have it completely function then still be able to disassemble like it is done in the cartoon for hiding in plain sight on a belt.

Thanks for the kind words everyone. We are definately looking into doing a limited run of these sabers in the near future.

It looks great!
I would buy it As it is!
If the box was a little thinner would be more accurate I believe.
Also if the emitter screwed off like in the pilot.

I will
Be getting this fur sure!
Take my money now!  :))

Hehe, thanks. We're still working out the install options and such.
We'll keep everyone posted as soon as these will be available.

As soon as we have figured out the install, we will know pricing and will open up an Interest-thread. We are working on the prototype as we speak. So please stay tuned!

Will it come in easy to detachable two pieces like in the show? Will attaching the second piece activate the saber?

The bladeholder will be threaded, so you will be able to take it apart like in the show.

Vector on IRA has just made 1 of these and it has the split in 2 parts function and not just as a prop, it works too. Hopefully something can be figured out with this 1 too.

Vektor's is more accurate in the sense that he merely twists it about a 1/4 of the way to connect the two parts.

Thats true, but for a blade holder threads are always the best choice.
Not sure what Kind of dueling Vektors could take.

Post by: Darth Ryô on October 17, 2014, 12:51:06 PM
Actually the request was precisely to favor this quick release function over heavy dueling capabilities.
So yes, it's meant for costuming and not heavy beating :)

But I don't think it would have any problem with light combat / having fun with other sabers anyway.

Oh, and nice concept here as well guys ;)

I should of added that...
Vektors looks great for Cosplay, especially w/ a 7/8" blade

but I love playing with my Toys  :))
