Kanezra #3 100% completed and ready to ship to the customer!

This was was super fun to do, and allowed me to try out some new things. The best kinds of customers for me are the ones who allow me to be a little creative. I created on this, a unique rounded switch box which houses 2 tactile switches and has lots of shapes and radius cut details.

I try and fabricate my hilts from scratch as much as possible. The only parts of this hilt that aren't stock parts are the screws, D-ring and the quartz crystal itself.

The D-ring holder, chamber rods, knurled grip, etched shroud and all other details were done by me. This is part of the reason my builds take some time
It's very important it is to me to try and make something truly unique for my customers.
The shroud on this hilt also has a Jedi etch within an ornate pattern, and a comfy knurled grip.

Kanezra Run hilt #2 complete!
Another 100% scratch made hilt, with the tiny exception of the thumbscrews!
The customer opted for this hilt to be non weathered so they can do that part them self.
Really enjoyed the custom requests for this one, which was the grip shroud with vented slotting.
The crystal chamber features genuine quartz and 3 detail rods. Double momentary switch box with detail milling all round.

Second Kanezra 100% completed.
This one feels special as this customer was the first who asked to be part of this little batch. They wanted it to be as if Kanan was a Jedi Master, how his hilt may have ended up feeling.
Details from top to bottom.
- Etched shroud, with ornate fish scale pattern, and faint/faded Kanan eye logo.
- Kanan Tsuba guard.
- Visible crystal chamber with real quartz crystal and scratch made detail rods, with hidden passages for wire passthroughs.
- Switch box with 2 x domed tactile switches (my favourite!)
- Removable grip, to allow for a static chassis reveal.
- Ornate grip etch underlay, with detailed overshroud containing multiple vents to show off the etch.
- D-ring belt holder.
- Hidden sound vent pommel, made from solid brass.

Following lots of interest in my Kanezra hilt, I am planning on doing a small batch of them in 2024.

The original hilt and the V2 are on the right, but the run will vary in some areas, so won't be exactly alike, as with all my hilts.

The basic details are as follows.

- 1 inch emitter (all aluminium), with blade plug and retention.
- Kanan Style Shroud and Tsuba.

- Optional crystal chamber.
- 2 button tactile switch boxes.
- Thumbscrew removable grip.

- Knurled or Machined grip.
- Pommel discreetly vented for sound.
- D-ring or covertec belt clip.

I plan to make this a small batch, of no more than 5.

The overall costs of the hilt will be £400.
