To start the initiate is just Bea-utiful.... strait-up beautiful. For small hands this is perfect, although I'm an adult with gorilla hands, for me it's a perfect hilt.
I love it's shape, the 2 choke points on it are perfectly spaced, I can wrap my hand around the ignition switch section perfectly. I use a 1.5 handed fighting style, where my left hand guides my right. It is just perfect for me to use. The black finish makes it a sleek, aye-catchingly simple design.

As an adult, I would have rather had a 3' blade in hindsight, but it's too late for that. (it's my problem, nothing wrong with the blade itself)

The color discs are great, there are 12 of them, making it possible to make about 16 good looking blade colors (I'm not sure if pairing is recommended or not) one problem I have is that red (the Sith color) turns out a hot pink... which was a bit of a disappointment, but I quickly found my other favorite color... a fire orange.

I have been told that we could get filters from other vendors that have a stronger red, but I think I like it as it is.

Anyway to sum it up, the hilt is AMAZING, the size perfect, the price great (for somebody without an income), the color discs are great except for the red, and I will most certainly be4 a return customer.

Nice review. I agree with you about this hilt, its a great, stable hilt.

Got any pics? I'd like to see a Dark Initiate in Silver... :)

its the blade not the hilt... just clarifying that a silver hilt is a normal initiate.

I think your smart enough to get that it's a silver blade... why do I doubt you? (Now I feel dumb, but will leave my comment above just to show how dumb I feel)

I don't have a camera, but I will try to borrow one some time.

Yeah, I know. I have a regular and dark initiate, just not in silver (blade colour). It'll be interesting to see. ;)

I'll get the picture soon.
