Well, looks like he cornered the bong market before you SH. Sorry. I'm sure that's a tough pill to swallow.
Kevin Smith did it years ago, and it was pretty funny.
Point being, it's nothing new.

This thread makes me think about the forbidden name when you want to talk about screwdrivers, after telling some descriptions of one of his screwdrivers, he sent me some insulting purpose via email,and I knew I would NEVER buy from this guy.
As I won't ever buy a ## screwdriver, I will never buy a SF lightsaber.
About copying, I can understand the original authors opinion, I also created some technology for Obiwan ep 4 lightsabers,meaning:scew on pommel, hollow booster, screw on spacer, and Romans and Russrep made similar design after I made them, and what, I wil have to call them thieves?
Of course I won't, I even helped on these design, and now there are available obi sabers, for affordable price, following some of my ideas.
What is revolting to me is not the way SF can less or more copy someone else's work, but his ****ing as**le behaviour!
I will share with friends.

1st: Thanks for this thread, I had considered SF for a purchase but this has shown me he is NOT somebody to do business with.
I'm always amazed at the crap people type from behind their keyboards, calling people a Little B? (among other things) Has anybody ever had somebody say that to them without a brawl starting? :facepalm Somehow I don't think he talks that way to people face to face (big man on the internet! :lol ) If I received a communication like the examples given you can be sure a face to face meeting would occur.
If I ever see a SF booth at a con I will open my jacket like Superman to reveal my RPF shirt!

Here’s a question to anyone who can answer it, about 8-10 monthsago Mr. Isherwood stated that Jet Cooper from pinewood studios bought (forfree) some of Mr. Isherwood’s sabers for the upcoming movies, does anyone knowif sabers that were sent will make a cameo in the movies? Or was this just apipe dream, not sure if Mr. Isherwood has said anything about it in a while as Idon’t keep in contact with any of his dealings (underlings)

They made a Instagram Account and were taking other Smiths/ Artists pics from their Photobucket Albums, Forums/ WEbsites/ and Facebook accounts and were using them to advertise their company.
I confronted them why they had my CONTENT on their account, and I saved all the interactoin with the Account owner who made the account with Saber forges Website URL
they have since removed the website link.
But here is an example of their BAIT AND SWITCH technique.
They know very well they are using someone elses content and another Artists Saber to sell their sabers.

What ever happened to people being decent human-beings?
A global computernetwork wiped them out.
No, wait, wrong franchise.
The internet happened.
How about a nice game of chess?

May I add my experience to the pool? It seems to be that I can't talk about this in a healthy manner elsewhere without being bombarded by people who don't understand and was driven out of my own FB group once. Before I post screencaps of the event, just know that I had posted a few test pics of an sf blade without the diffuser for the sole purpose of seeing why it was so important and intended to replace it thereafter. As I do with my friends and family, I send them friendly little pokes to let them know I am still around and even have "poke wars" to see how high the total can get. Also there was a viral video going around that depicted Sol (our sun) as a comet that drug the planets behind it in is wake. I had posted a link to a prolific scientists article that debunked this fact and then some. Now to the scenario that ensued.
I admit my response to that was inadequate to say the least but at the time I was supportive of his apparent turnaround and had no knowledge of the bans from here and IRA, FX, and Rl and did not know he threatened to recast stuff from other highly respected smiths. This next set of caps is from my response to his video about the recasting accusations.
.
Clearly I've had time to think about a proper and professional response as this was a few weeks later and felt that I had to get this out, as the audacity of the previous incident was nearly overwhelming. Out of all the companies I've dealt with (that make sabers and other stuff), that was the worst PR ever displayed. Again, I did not fully know the whole situation at the time of this, just scratched the surface at the time. I was seeking just an apology just like one member and did in public as to not cause a huge scene but it was spat in my face and he attempted to further humiliate me. I simply cannot stand anyone that supports this guy and I have had better treatment from every other company out there in regards to questions, potential purchases, and even email responses. Emory at US has better customer service than Phil, as I was asking about a recent purchase change and he promptly responded to my email at 1:30 AM (granted its like, 3:30 AM there but wow!) and agreed to switch me blade types and downsized the blade for me.
Others at FB seem to have bad experiences as well and it's definitely not just a few isolated incidents. It's happening more frequently and sf just keeps burying themselves in deeper holes. I hope this helps in any way shape or form. Thanks for taking the time to read this guys!

Hey Ekosk, join the club brother. I exeprienced exactly the same behavour. Let me guess, after that he blocked you on Facebook and you no longer have excess to his "Everybody is welcome, no censoring here"-saber-facebook page?
It's a real same that still a lot of people don't see or want to see what kind of a scumbag mister Isherwood really is, and a poor businessman at that.
My advice: ignore the man and his products, focus on the real sabersmiths and the quality companies. One day the world will know who Isherwood really is, and by posting what you did, that's another step closer.

Hey guys, so has anyone seen what’s going on with Garryripper and his ripper blades? Just so everyone knows Gerry ripper his beenmaking acrylic blades for the past few years. About a week and a half ago itcame out that Mr. Isherwood would startmaking ripper like blades. The strange thing about this is Mr. Isherwood supportedand even asked ripper if he wanted to work for SF or cut some kind of deal,according to Mr. Ripper he declined the offer from Mr. Isherwood. Now here’sthe crazy part 2 days ago Mr. Isherwood posts that he broke a ripper blade he’shad for a good 4-6 months (ripper confirmed that he stopped making the bladesthat Mr. Isherwood clams that he broke a good while ago) now on Gerry rippersfb page (ripperblades) there have been some posts as to how this debacle hasbeen boiling down. I think everyone should head over and start supporting Mr.Ripper and his blades. With our support we can stop Mr. Isherwood’s attemptedpiracy
