Vader’s Vault Wrath — Lord of the Rings
Some slides in the original post were videos; still frames are shown here.
The art and science of lightsabers stretches far beyond sabers from Star Wars canon. Original designs are often where the creativity of saber smiths can truly shine, even to the extent of sabers inspired by mythologies from other universes. One of the foremost companies in creating high quality original designs is @officialvadersvault owned by saber pioneers Alan and Deanna Johnson. Here we share two sabers from their original Wrath design.
This first exhibit features the Wrath by @officialvadersvault , etched by Ryan Lanon with a Lord of the Rings theme and further customised and installed by @by_harp . A detailed look at the etch shows the intricacy of the Middle Earth design theme, infused with Mordor. Additional customisations allow light to shine through around the emitter hinting at the power beneath.
The highlight of this saber is surely the custom-made crystal chamber reveal. Exposed through battle damage scarring to showcase the legendary One Ring, circling the kyber crystal. The CfX board provides light and sound to the LED accents. Truly a one-of-a-kind saber worthy of the Dark Lord Sauron himself.
