This saber is HUGE. My eyes melted when I unpacked it because theres so much to look at on this saber.
This saber is trully awsome as no other word can describe the way I fell when I hold it in my hand. I'v had this saber for around three weeks and in that time have used it every weekend to spar with my friends. Anyone who sees it will want one.
Compared to my Shock LE the War Glaive is a monster. The hilt is almost 6 1/2 inches longer.
The War Glaive is built for combat. There is nothing you can do that will harm the hilt. In fact I found the hilt to be a very effective flail. Using it in this way did cause some scratches but the claws were undamaged.
The claws really make this saber. There held on with one bolt and two pins per claw making them removabal, but if you choose to leave them on they will stay firmly in place. During the day they shine in the sun and at night they reflect the light from the blade giving the saber a sinister look. The claws also prevent your hand from being hit sometimes.
The emiter has the deepest blade socket i'v ever seen from US. The socket is 4 1/4 inches deep; so deep that the blade runs through the entire emiter. The blades not going anywhere no mater how hard you swing it around.
The pommle is large and provides grip if needed.
The slots in the emiter let out lots of light from the blade.
The battery pack dosen't rattle in the saber due to it's snug fit. It also has a velcro band preventing the batteries from falling out during a duel.
All seven colors
With low batteries you can get pink and orange.
This saber is truly awsome. thank you US for creating such an awsome saber.
I do have one complaint though: when I unpacked the saber it had this geasy/oil residue inside. probably from a CNC process.
