New dueling lightsaber, fresh for this summer 2024. The Shield is a strong design with full black and gold accents going even inside the cutouts.
And it's a VHC compatible saber designed in 4 parts : the open work emitter piece, the button section, the grip and the pommel. It is our top pick for a dueling lightsaber!
VHC : This saber has VHC threads (Variable Hilt Component standard by Nexus Sabers), meaning it can be associated with parts of other VHC sabers and can accommodate VHC compatible accessories. A threaded hole at the bottom of the grip allows to attach our covertec wheel accessory. The pommel golden ring being larger than the grip tube we don't recommend adding a covertec module
Like all of our amazing sabers, this hilt is made of aluminium 6063. Every saber boasts stunning finishes on a great build with strong materials to offer either the best reproduction of a legendary design or a very comfortable and yet stylish dueling weapon.

SABER CONFIGURATIONS
Here's a simple breakdown of our available configurations. See our "Which version to choose ?" info box above for more details.
- 🥉Standard : the base model with a Xeno 3 board, featuring rich sounds, lots of effects and customizable through a mobile app or via SD card. Standard sabers are baselit sabers with a lighter blade made for heavy dueling. Perfect if you plan on doing cosplay or stunt/duel performances or if you simply don't need the neopixel blade.
- 🥈Premium : it's our most wanted option! The same Xeno 3 board but with a neopixel blade. The high density LED strip in the blade allows for an amazing look and tons of visual effects. Now customizable through a mobile app and, as usual, via the SD card.
DIMENSIONS
- 📐 Dimensions of the hilt : 30 cm / 11.8 inches in length, weighs approx. 350g / 0.77 lbs
- 📐 Dimensions of the blade : it's our 1 inch diameter standard, then you choose between 72, 82, 92 cm (28, 32 or 36 inches) for the length. Polycarbonate thickness is 2mm for Standard sabers and 3mm for Premium and Deluxe sabers.
- 📏 Recommended length of your lightsaber : a lot of academies and fencing federations request that the total length of your dueling saber stays between 100 and 110cm (39.4 to 43.4 inches). The blade usually sits inside the hilt for about 5 to 7 cm (2 to 3 inches). If you mean to use your saber in an official setting, be careful and choose the appropriate size, if you don't care for this, go for the longer blade length : 36 inches / 92 cm.
