Title: My Graflex SE in Guardian Blue Post by: Fanaticus on July 25, 2016, 04:25:29 PM Hi,
Here are some pictures overload of my long waited Emerald/ObsidianV4 Graflex SE in Guardian Blue blade color. I finally cought this simply must-have US hilt in-stock, but unfortunately I've ended up with the colors of the Front/Rear Buttons exchanged to what I was planning... I was targeting a Gold Button on the top of the hilt and a Silver Button in the bottom (to somehow simulate the "glass eye" in some versions of this hilt), but well... I ended up with the very opposite, not sure it they are easily exchanged... It stills looks very fine, and a different unique combination... Another issue was that I've choose a Buttom Blade Set Screw for the hilt, and US didn't sent me the adequate Allen-Key wrench... and it was an unexpected bit of a pain to find the right one... For your future reference:
This was the configuration of the hilt (NO recharge port, as it simply defaces this hilt, IMO): The Graflex SE with Sound (Emerald) [Blade LED Color:Guardian Blue for Emerald] [Emerald Driver Configuration:4 Channel Emerald Driver - RGBW LED [Summer Awakening Deals]] [Flash on Clash:Flash Silver for Emerald] [Pulse Mode:Pulse to Arctic Blue] [Battery Configuration:Li-Ion Setup for Emerald (Batteries & Charger Included)] [Recharge Port:No Recharge Port] [Blade Length:36" Standard Size] [Blade Option:UltraEdge Midgrade] [Sound:Obsidian USB V4 Sound! [V4]] [Switch Type:White Illuminated Silver AV Switch] [AV Switch Channel:Channel 4 (Dedicated to AV Switch) [Recommended]] [Front Button Color:Gold] [Rear Button Color:Chrome] [Blade Set Screw Type:Button] [Blade Tip:POINTED TIP] [Include Retention Screw Wrench:Sure!] [Include Blade Plug:Yes, Include Circle Plug] [Include Saber Stand:No Thanks] [Include MINI USB Cable:No Thanks] [Include Covertec Clip:No Thanks] The Graflex SE Hilt has a special blade plug in it, a true replica of a Graflex. Enough talk, here comes the pictures: (https://c1.staticflickr.com/9/8748/27835316024_e6534e88f5_h.jpg) (https://flic.kr/p/JpHgFN) DSC04520 (https://flic.kr/p/JpHgFN) by Fanaticus (https://www.flickr.com/photos/140433269@N03/), on Flickr (https://c7.staticflickr.com/9/8884/28346861942_99fa3aff2d_h.jpg) (https://flic.kr/p/KbV5t1) DSC04522 (https://flic.kr/p/KbV5t1) by Fanaticus (https://www.flickr.com/photos/140433269@N03/), on Flickr (https://c5.staticflickr.com/9/8434/27835314164_b60756c461_h.jpg) (https://flic.kr/p/JpHg8J) DSC04524 (https://flic.kr/p/JpHg8J) by Fanaticus (https://www.flickr.com/photos/140433269@N03/), on Flickr (https://c3.staticflickr.com/8/7730/27835312194_d62c1af689_h.jpg) (https://flic.kr/p/JpHfxL) DSC04527 (https://flic.kr/p/JpHfxL) by Fanaticus (https://www.flickr.com/photos/140433269@N03/), on Flickr (https://c3.staticflickr.com/8/7648/28169006050_e59c125167_h.jpg) (https://flic.kr/p/JVcw77) DSC04535 (https://flic.kr/p/JVcw77) by Fanaticus (https://www.flickr.com/photos/140433269@N03/), on Flickr (https://c7.staticflickr.com/9/8642/28169004830_5406296bcf_h.jpg) (https://flic.kr/p/JVcvK5) DSC04537 (https://flic.kr/p/JVcvK5) by Fanaticus (https://www.flickr.com/photos/140433269@N03/), on Flickr (https://c6.staticflickr.com/9/8043/28373373581_63864b52f9_h.jpg) (https://flic.kr/p/KefXse) DSC04547 (https://flic.kr/p/KefXse) by Fanaticus (https://www.flickr.com/photos/140433269@N03/), on Flickr (https://c6.staticflickr.com/9/8381/28373371741_6045e8ccdc_h.jpg) (https://flic.kr/p/KefWUv) DSC04550 (https://flic.kr/p/KefWUv) by Fanaticus (https://www.flickr.com/photos/140433269@N03/), on Flickr (https://c4.staticflickr.com/9/8755/28451707915_ed0e48cc96_h.jpg) (https://flic.kr/p/Kmbrwc) DSC04558 (https://flic.kr/p/Kmbrwc) by Fanaticus (https://www.flickr.com/photos/140433269@N03/), on Flickr Title: Re: My Grafles SE in Guardian Blue Post by: Fanaticus on July 25, 2016, 04:32:39 PM And now some more pictures, with the saber ignited:

Nice pics. :) Thing of beauty. -1 Title: Re: My Graflex SE in Guardian Blue Post by: Fanaticus on July 26, 2016, 02:10:17 PM Should I bother "correcting" the buttons?
(Gold on top, rear the Bunny Ears; Silver on bottom) Title: Re: My Graflex SE in Guardian Blue Post by: Rapine on July 26, 2016, 02:12:00 PM Should I bother "correcting" the buttons? I rather think it looks good the way it is, but that's totally up to you. :)(Gold on top, rear the Bunny Ears; Silver on bottom) Title: Re: My Graflex SE in Guardian Blue Post by: scifidude79 on July 26, 2016, 02:28:34 PM Wow, lots of pics. Great stuff. ;D It's a thing of beauty, that's for sure.
I was under the impression that the buttons were relatively easy to change, but not having one, (yet) I can't say for certain. However, I think it looks good as it is. I get where you wanted to simulate that glass eye look, but by not doing that, you got an unintended unique touch to yours.

Title: Re: My Graflex SE in Guardian Blue Post by: Lord Sidious on July 28, 2016, 08:16:08 AM That's some of the finest photos of The Graflex SE I have seen! Have a point.
Title: Re: My Graflex SE in Guardian Blue Post by: Kencyrath on July 31, 2016, 05:38:05 PM Nice pics. Point to you. I believe my next saber will be a Emerald/ObsidianV4 Graflex SE. Very helpful.
