Wow.
Panther, that's just amazing.
Out of curiosity, can the crossguard sections be reversed on the emitter so the points are towards the pommel end? I actually really like the Omen in its standard configuration (although I have a Manticore, and can definitely see the appeal there too) and am just wondering about having one/both sets of claws pointed downwards.
If I understand you correctly, no. The Omen emitter can't be reversed because there are no threads on the other end where the blade goes.
You'll see when I post pics of the original Omen configuration.
