From Vapor Moon!

This Is A Knurled Finish...
I tried going real heavy to give a true Diamond finish,
But it looked more like a tool handle. So I eased up and
Got this great feeling swirling finish.

If you tell me what you think, and there is a good response,
I may offer this finish on my site.
If you want this finish prior to introducing it on the web,
email me at SirLawrence@VaporMoon.com
And you can special order it.

All opinions are welcome.

Pardon the Bad Pic!

I would LOVE one of these!!!
I've heard great things about the VV Saber Touch....

I very much like the new finish -
different from what you normally see.
I like silver, and this type of finish doesn't look like fingerprints would be an issue unlike the smooth silver.
It also looks like the pattern would be quite forgiving of scratches and dings.

PLUS, the texture would make it easy to grip and hopefully prevent accidental slips and falls.

Quite frankly, this looks like a piece of expensive (and gloriously functional) jewelry.

Well done!

Wow! Thanks! Sounds like a review without it even being on the market yet! Thanks to you both... glad you like it.
Yes, fingerprints will never be an issue with this finish.

It is beautiful, it would look awesome in a matte or satin black. Im really thinking about one of your PV. The are nice and simple, sleek and clean looking. Its on my top 3 consideratons.

You would not be disappointed. Sir Lawrence makes the most solid yet beautiful PV's in the whole world. I personally own four and they all perform perfectly everytime with just the touch of a finger.

I just finished a couple more of the Knurling on the bodies... but I came out with a nice, soft, perfect diamond pattern instead of a swirl.
If the Sun comes out tomorrow, I'll have to get a picture of it to see how you all like that version.

:nun:PLEASE come out Sun

Well guys...
After machining about 30 bodies... I've come to the conclusion that each one will be slightly different. Which can be a good thing! Each of these Sabers will be a One Of A Kind!
See, using a computer controlled lathe, I can reproduce each one exactly the same, but I can't take the knurling all the way to the treading for the caps. The machine can't get that close to the ends.
But using my manual machine lathe, I can't go all the way to the ends, but the tension has to be set by hand. Which means, each one will be slightly different.
So, When I put it back onto my site, I will make it clear that the Knurling is unique to each Saber. Close, but never exactly the same!
