Oooo, I like yours, looks really good with the Guardian pommel and a black AV switch with the blue LED. Aeons and Dominixs will always be my go to but I don't mind having a back up
LOL Its actually a Scorpion pommel. :-) But close enough. I have or have had Aeon V2, V3 and V4 as well as Sentinel V4 and now the Catalyst. Of them, the Aeon V4 and the Catalyst are the most comfortable for handling and spinning. I recommend the 32" blade in the Cat, though. The blade socket is shallow compared to the Aeon, so the actual visible length is only about 1.5" shorter than the Aeon V4 with a 36" blade. And make sure the set screw is TIGHT. It will feel a bit wobbly none-the-less, but I haven't lost mine yet despite much spinning and dueling. |

I love my Shock for that reason, spins amazingly for sure even with a heavy blade  Can't imagine it with a 32 inch Mid though. Never got to try a Catalyst yet though, looks like it'd be a good saber to have |

I've spun with a Apprentice and they're okay, but as good as the Initiate in my opinion and I have yet to own a Sentinel.
Really? What length and grade blade was on it? To me, the Apprentice is a far better spinner than the Initiate. |

I recommend 32" blades for anyone under 6'2". Unless you like hitting the ground a lot while you spin. |

I recommend 32" blades for any saber. HG or MG just depends on the weight of the hilt. |

The Sentinel spins nicely, but I think the choke point up top is a bit slick and the hilt moves around a lot. (and I'm not the fancy spinner some of you are) I actually put a bit of leather in my choke points when I customized my Dark Sentinel. That makes a world of difference. Though, grip tape or a bunch of O-rings would likely work too. |

Karmack...I think you’ve inspired a future want with that catalyst. As far as wish list “must haves,” Ki Adi Mundi has been suggested before, but I would really love to see US version of that one. As much as I want soooo many other sabers—Ki’s might just top them all. It is not the fanciest of sabers, but one my favorites. My collection won’t be complete without this one  |

+1 for Ki-Adi Mundi. I think he's one of the coolest non main character Jedi, plus his saber looks fantastic.
