Shown vertically above, but intended for horizontal display with the
engraving plate at the bottom, a cherry model lined with red velvet and also with a glass top.
The maximum sized saber this will accommodate is 38 inches (measured from the tip of the saber to the end of the hand guard).
Our Saber Cases are made out of solid hardwood with a multiply Luan plywood back. We use hand selected Red Oak, American Cherry, and Black Walnut. Cases are stained with an oil stain and then multiple coats of lacquer are applied with hand sanding for a beautiful, smooth semi-gloss finish.
Although the process of applying lacquer is more tedious, it will outlast polyurethane because over time the multiple coats of polyurethane will peel. When lacquer is applied it naturally melts the previous coat to allow it to bond together, thus there is not any layering effect or any possibility the finish will peel off. 10 1/2 inches by 39 1/2 inches. Shipping weight: 10 pounds (without glass), 14 pounds (with glass).
Both Black and Red velvet are offered on this model, along with the all Walnut back on the walnut frame. We use the highest grade of “instrument quality” velvet made in the USA by JB Martin. The velvet is hand stretched over quilting batting to give the sabers a pillow-like background.
Shipping Boxes: Our cases are shipped in a specially designed second box which gives approximately two inches of clearance around an inner box which houses the saber case. These shipping boxes are a 250 pound weight corrugated cardboard and can be reused over and over again to keep your heirloom safe during your frequent moves. The inner box has additional corner protection utilizing 'blow out' corner inserts. These inserts add to the overall protection from damage.
Shipping: Can ship within the Continental USA (CONUS) via UPS Ground or to any APO/FPO address via USPS Parcel Post. If USPS Parcel Post is used, expect 4 to 6 weeks for delivery. Priority shipping to APO/FPO is available for an extra cost (please call 1-800-984-2160…customer service option to arrange). Shipping & Handling fee includes insurance.
Please note that sabers are not included with any of our cases.
