    my @officialvadersvault lightsaber arrived today! my @officialvadersvault lightsaber arrived today! been waiting on this since January, and the wait was worth it for the sheer quality and beauty of this hilt.

for those who don't recognize it, this is Ben Solo's lightsaber as a Padawan. it's only seen for a few seconds in The Last Jedi.

also, shout-out to @ksith_saber_fonts for the sick font. THAT SMOOTH SWING THOUGH.
