Age Verification

Only applicable to Replica Swords, Daggers, Knives. Not applicable to Replica Lightsabers

Replica Collectables and Decorative Items

All replica swords, daggers, and knives available on our website are designed and sold strictly for decorative and display purposes only. These items are intended for collectors, cosplayers, and enthusiasts to be used as props or ornaments.

Blade Specification

To ensure safety and compliance, every item in our collection is manufactured and supplied with a dull, unsharpened blade. These replicas are not functional tools and have not been sharpened in any capacity prior to dispatch.

Purpose of This Policy

Replica Sabers (“we”, “us”, “our”) is committed to responsible retailing and full compliance with United Kingdom legislation relating to the sale of age-restricted items. This policy explains how we verify age, why verification is required, and what steps we take before dispatching orders.

As we supply replica decorative swords and traditionally hand-forged katana, many items on our website are legally restricted to customers aged 18 years or older. This policy applies to all purchases made through www.replicasabers.co.uk.

Legal Requirements

Under United Kingdom law, certain items—such as curved swords over 50cm and edged items—can only be sold to adults aged 18+. Traditional hand-forged, clay-tempered katana qualify for a legal exemption when genuinely hand-crafted, but still must not be sold to minors. We have a legal duty to take reasonable steps to ensure that customers purchasing restricted items are 18 or over.

Age Restriction – 18+ Only

To purchase any age-restricted product from Replica Sabers, you must:

Be 18 years of age or older
Provide accurate personal information during checkout
Complete any age-verification checks we require before dispatch

We reserve the right to refuse service to anyone who cannot satisfactorily prove their age.

When We Carry Out Age Verification

We may verify age:

When an order contains any replica sword, knife, dagger, or bladed product
When an order contains a traditional hand-forged katana
When details on an order appear incomplete, inconsistent, or suspicious
When required by our payment processor or delivery partners

Even if a customer has passed age verification previously, we may request verification again for new orders.

How We Verify Age

We use manual checks to verify age.

Request (Manual verification) Please upload a photo of one of the following alongside your order:

Passport
United Kingdom driving license
Government-issued photo ID
National identity card

Delivery-stage checks Certain couriers may require age-verified delivery, where proof of age is shown upon receipt.

Failure to Verify Age

If we are unable to verify that you are 18 or over, your order will be placed on hold and you will be contacted to provide acceptable proof of age. If you cannot provide valid ID, we will cancel the order and refund your payment (minus any fees that cannot be recovered).

Data Protection & Privacy

We treat all personal information with the highest level of care and in accordance with the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018. ID is used solely for age verification and data is kept secure and confidential. Full details can be found in our Privacy Policy.
