Eerockk and Locutis (Locutis btw, I gave you an additional Dark side point for your weapon, the red blade decided that for me  ) I have some menial experience with naginata and nagamaki/nodachi. I have a TON of experience with a Scottish Highland Claymore. I gotta ask, how do you think something this massive would do in a sparring match? I'm thinking in the TPLA world of swordsmanship. My primary concern is in protecting the hilt from a Sun Djem disarm where we get our lightsaber hilts get sliced a'la Darth Maul. I do like my oversized weapons and this is very cool and a neat way to make a crystal chamber with the second full hilt, let alone how intimidating it could be having two obsidian soundboards inside |

Thanks, point back at ya!
I have 0 experience with weapons, so I can't answer that. All I can say is if these were real I would have dismembered myself by now. lol
As for the sound, it's very loud! It sounds cool because they have different fonts.
The Overlord has the default Obsidian font and the Dark Arbiter has BlackStar!

Considering the hilts are stronger than the blades they hold, you won't have an issue being the recipient of Sun Djem. (You and I could duel safely, in other words ) |

(You and I could duel safely, in other words ) I was actually meaning "in character" or "in universe" rather in the real world. I know how tough these lightsabers can be. Back in 2003 I first jumped into the custom lightsaber scene because my little sis had broken her Hasbro Darth Maul while we were playing and it broke her heart. I'm definitely a fan of how things progressed rather quickly to aircraft grade aluminum. point to you still! Love your reviews and those massive lightsabers are really wicked! You have my favorite number btw now for your force points |

If memory serves, Sasaki Kojiro favoured this weapon because it had a slight reach advantage over a regular katana. He was, of course, beaten by Musashi Miyamoto, who fashioned an even longer weapon from a wooden oar!
This is a little late but. Lol that's funny history, beaten by an oar |

Eventualy I will be making a great saber but insted of using two hilts. I'm just gona use one hilt with an extenension. Its too bad they don't have a gold anodized pomel like the one for the guardian cuz that would pair up nicely with my shock that's comming in

That's actually the right way to do it! If I had an extension, I would have used that for sure. |

I am in like Flynn with that! Bring safety gear and it's something we'll be able to repeat!  The Bellicose is 13.5" and the Guardian is around the same, plus an inch for the coupler, so about 28" or so total. It's a good two-hander. |
