That thing looks HUGE
I've got a pic of the Grand Master and Azure Savior side by side. Same length hilt basically. I think it's a case of the Wife's small hands make it look larger. But she's happy with it. |

OK, not sure why, but all I see is little "broken link" icons...
:-/
Not sure what's up with that. These are links from twitter, which I'd read worked OK, and nobody had issues with the ones from my Grand Master. |

At long last, the wife's Azure Savior has arrived:  After inspection, the unboxing:  Then we laid it out on an appropriate blanket  And finally powered it up:  It's raining, so we'll arrange a suitable photoshoot with my wife later... Beautiful hilt Janx! I really like the blue anodizing  |

Beautiful hilt Janx! I really like the blue anodizing She likes it. More subtle bluing. Also turns out it's Revan's saber, which she just finished KotOR so she's giddy about that. I'm not normally a fan of the "turned on a lathe" look, preferring more asymmetric designs (like the Grand Master). But after twirling and swinging both, the Savior hilt has less "stuff" in the way, more usable grip and allows you to hold it closer to the guard than mine. This is a good design for actual use. |

Agreed on both points. My favorite is my Archon v3.1 but I modded it with a Graflex clamp: looks great but not so helpful with its utility... However, my Sentinel v4 is incredibly practical for sabercraft, spinning, etc.  On that note: I'd love to do an emitter mod for it matching one of For Tyeth's dual-pronged designs  |

@Logos, its really not that huge of a saber, just online pictures make it seem big like always. I should know since I have a Crimson Savior as well if you remember  I have medium sized hands and can handle the saber just fine. My next big saber will be the Bane, that saber is a beast though |

It is two-tone. The paint is Rustoleum "black steel" satin-finish, painted on the grenade grips and claws/fins. The highlights are copper. Another shot:  and its the same color I used on these two:  |
