I think I can say I got the extension from custom sabers. Not trying to break any rules. If you want to know more about it, pm me.

Ahh, and Malik? The raffle prize might just need to be weathered a bit. Then you'd have a perfect shoto type for duel wielding!

I'm honestly not a huge fan of weathering.

My 1st place prize, the Dark Initiate v5. Just wanted to show off the Emerald saber capabilities. I think it's pretty nice. http://imgur.com/gallery/PIfTI8Z |

Points incoming Malik!
Thanks for the reviews. Really enjoyed the Fallen review. I like the idea of the extension. Wondering what it will do to the balance and handling of the saber.
And thank you for including the comparison to the other sabers. Nice to see them side by side and do a little comparisson.

It is my first emerald saber. I only have one diamond saber as well. I usually keep my sabers in the original setup I've ordered them in. Of course, I have been known to add quick disconnects to some, to give me the option to change things up later if I want.

There's just something about seeing a Dominix V5 in a variety of blade colors. Congrats, Malik! |

Then how about a nice gray leather wrap from defconbird? That might spruce it up some. |

Actually, I like the design of the saber. It's the length that is got me only 80-85% in love with the saber. I think I'd be sold if it was the longer version. I find that I tend to prefer the larger size hilts. That's one of the reasons why I need to get my Scorpion back. LOVED that hilt. I do really like the emerald driver.

Um, so why not just order another one of those TCSS extensions like on your Fallen? Seems like you already have the solution to the hilt being too short. I personally think that would look pretty cool with a silver extension between the hilt end and the pommel. If you want it solid black, you could easily use E-tape as a wrap - |

Came to a sad actualization today...
I leave Saturday at 3:00am to drive from Wisconsin to Florida for a week long Bahamas cruise. And since my sabers haven’t even finished processing, there’s no way they’ll arrive before my vacation. Don’t get me wrong, having them be there when I return will be really nice, but when I ordered I had no idea I wouldn’t get them before my trip when ordering 8 weeks in advance. Kind of disappointing. Oh well
P.S. great sabers and great reviews Malik!

The extension idea is cool. I've thought about it. But I'm just not feeling this saber. I'm just about sure I will be looking to hopefully trade...or sell it. I got my heart set on a couple other sabers that I MUST HAVE in my collection. Somebody's gonna get an AWESOME, INCREDIBLE deal.
