I wanted to start this up after the sad removal of the Liberator CE from the site as an option, and due to the love of everyone of the Nickel Plated Prophesy.

To Quote Ultra in this thread: http://www.saberforum.com/index.php?topic=879.0
"The technique we use to nickel plate our hilts is the same used to nickel plate modern Colt fire arms.  The finish will not chip, peel, or flake."

I love this, especially for stunt sabers that would normally get beaten up. I had wanted to buy a CE liberator in Sun Rider for this very reason.

I have also really wanted a Nickel Shock option, for a great collector piece.

Hopefully we get back the Graflex CE, and we have the Consular with the Nickel Shroud, The Overlord with Nickel Emitter and Pommel, and the Monarch with the Nickel full hilt.

I just wanted to get the community on board with having the option more regularly again, if we can get enough people interested and committed to the Nickel finishes I hope to bring them back to the site, or at least have a big run that those of us who want to get some added to our collection.

So what does everyone think?

To Entice you some Pics

Overlord (Left Nickel, Right Silver/Bare)


Monarch (Left/Bottom Nickel, Right/Top Silver/Bare)


Consular Shroud (Left Silver/Bare, Right Nickel)


Graflex (Left Nickel, Right Silver/Bare)

Count me in, I have the Graflex CE and I love the look of the nickel plated finish.  I think a nickel plated Shock would look amazing.

Same here. I got the nickel plating on my overlord and I love it (no scratches or marks whatsoever even after dropping it a few times lol). I was really looking forward to getting the liberator ce as my second saber until it was taken off the market.

Even Liberator looks awesome in this plating, add one more vote for the return of such masterpieces.

Nickel plating is a great finish, I have an older model they used to make called the Redemption that is entirely nickel plated and I love it.  I'd like to get one of the nickel plated Prophecy hilts one day...

I just hope the Graflex CE comes back in stock and doesn't get discontinued. 
I would like a nickel Prophecy too, but I'm not holding my breath on that one.

I'd really like a nickel plated Prophecy myself, it's rare to see them these days though.  Still haven't decided which Graflex I want to get, the SE or CE.

Count me in as well. Every saber I've seen with nickel playing looks phenomenal.
