Title: Recent Acquisitions Post by: Master Bluespike74 on March 03, 2014, 01:40:30 AM Nickel Plated Monarch. Switch is damaged but still works. Future plans (possible video) will include LED switch out, replacement of the switch, install of D-ring and Recharge port.

Previous owner was not happy with the guy that weathered it. This will be another video project saber. It will be gutted, all remaining anodization and polish will be removed. Sections will be painted. Emerald Green LED installed. Covertec Knob will be moved and recharge port installed in remaining hole. D-ring installation on the pommel.

What can I say, this saber is beautiful. Mint condition. Why mess with perfection?

Title: Re: Recent Acquisitions Post by: SILVERBACK on March 03, 2014, 01:47:08 AM Nice score on the Monarch. I know a lot of people don't like it but I love mine. It's a good one handed saber if you have big paws, it fits my hand nicely.
Title: Re: Recent Acquisitions Post by: Master Bluespike74 on March 03, 2014, 01:53:31 AM Nice score on the Monarch. I know a lot of people don't like it but I love mine. It's a good one handed saber if you have big paws, it fits my hand nicely. It is by far the heaviest saber that I own. I thought my War Glaive was a beast until I grabbed this. It just really lends itself as a great costume piece and I have a feeling that leaving it in stunt mode will make it that much better. It came with Li-Ion batteries and Buck Puck. The previous owner asked for the LED to be returned as VA is the owner's signature color. I am glad as I didn't like the VA. I am personally thinking AS for the LED, getting some filters, and installing an UE blade on it. The vent pattern in the pommel is perfectly set for enlargement to accommodate a recharge port and I'll have left over holes to install a D-ring. The grips are awesome. I cannot find a bad grip on this thing. Title: Re: Recent Acquisitions Post by: Master Nero Attoru on March 03, 2014, 02:01:38 AM Solid lineup!
Title: Re: Recent Acquisitions Post by: Zren Tobas on March 03, 2014, 03:19:36 AM Would the Monarch fit someone with small hands for two handed combat? Been worried about that hence why I always stayed away. Plus I could always switch out the pommel too if I wanted.
Title: Re: Recent Acquisitions Post by: Big Andy on March 03, 2014, 03:39:09 AM I've gotta say I've always admired the elegance of the monarch hilt, but for me the anodize color options just don't do it justice. You should paint parts of it gold and make it "LE" style, now that would be off the hook.
Can't go wrong with a prophecy one way or another. Dominix v2, beautiful saber just the way she is, make her an LE, even better. All around, nice score. Point to you. Title: Re: Recent Acquisitions Post by: Master Bluespike74 on March 04, 2014, 08:35:38 PM Correction:
I spoke with the previous owner today. The Prophecy is a silver one and not the Dark as I had originally thought. Title: Re: Recent Acquisitions Post by: haldir on March 04, 2014, 08:52:45 PM Blue, do you own the guardian?
Title: Re: Recent Acquisitions Post by: Master Bluespike74 on March 04, 2014, 08:55:16 PM I don't.
