I have the same question, but while I was waiting I was hoping to get some answers on the chassis. I received the file from Shadowfoil, and was excited to begin. I looked at the Shapeways shop for a quick guide on the parts. Found it and continued. I was fortunate I had a lot of the parts already. What I could not find was the setup guide on how the blade and chassis will meet. Still, knowing the blades are not in the mail I thought I would have time to find out. What surprised me was the chassis. Is the file specifically designed for a certain extrusion and material? I printed in resin (with lots of sanding), and FDM to only find out that a 18650 will not fit in the formats I used. Will, there be instructions on assembly; and the connection for the blade to the chassis? Lastly, I hope an announcement will be made with a timeline for the blades?Any update on the blades?

i just messaged him today and he said hes packing the blades. so hopefully they will be shipped soon.Is there any update on the blades from SaberTrade?
Hey bud and fellow participants, your feelings are understandable, and I totally accept the blame for a lack on communication here. My presence in theRPF isn’t as much as it is on my other media accounts. I’ll work hard on increasing my presence for the future.In early August I noticed shipping information on my paypal. The information was bogus. I contacted theSabertrader to see what was up. I was promised that it would be updated and the blade would be sent out. While this is not the first broken promise I’m thinking it should be the last. Weeks have passed and at this point I’m thinking I should do a PayPal claim for the blade portion and sell my hilt and chassis. I do understand that some runs take longer than planned and life happens. Still, my confidence for a blade has hit a low.
