I hope I did the right thing by ordering:
Chrome front button
Red rear button
Guardian Blue with silver FOC...
Trying to go for the EP7 Graflex...
That's an absolutely gorgeous saber, and one that's recognizable from across the room. Nice! Point. |

I do hope my bellicose in looks good in sentinel yellow with a Ultraedge midgrade blade because I didt know which blade it would look good in

That's what I got on my Manticore. UltraEdge, as far as I know, appears fuller, but is a little dimmer. If you want to do full-contact, I recommend a heavy-duty blade though. Smarter, more experienced members would likely know more though. |

It's all in the eye of the beholder; I'm sure you can find people on here that woud say UltraEdge (I would agree there) and others would say Clear. What I'm sure of is - you'll love it when you get it! And you can always buy a different blade at some point if you want to try the clear blades. |

Winning? Is that what you think it's about? I'm not trying to win. I'm not doing this because I want to beat someone, or because I hate someone, or because I want to blame someone. It's not because it's fun. God knows it's not because it's easy. It's not even because it works, because it hardly ever does. I do what I do because it's right! Because it's decent! And above all, it's kind! It's just that. Just kind.

Some great sabers being ordered, the graflex and bellicose are two of my favorite hilts. Glad to see them being so popular this raffle.
I think SY would probably look good in either blade but I would prefer te standard blade for it myself.
@TJ, you should definitely get the flamberge that appeals to you the most, but I can't say enough how much I enjoy the feel of the V2 body on mine.

Ok one more question my Masters...I have decided on my raffle saber an Archon V2.1 in TRI Consular Green. But the blade, what size should I get? Since most of you have one, I am only 5'7" and have a 32" blade on my Prophecy which is perfect, but the blade sits deep in the Archon so should I get a 36" blade so it isn't to small?? Please and thanks for the help...I won't ask anymore questions....wait that's a lie....lol...

I think with the Archon V2.1 you would be fine sticking with the 36" standard size blade. As you said, it has a fairly deep socket (about 3-4 inches if I remember correctly) so that should bring it close to 32" of blade extending from the top of the emitter |

Do keep in mind that the Prophecy has a deep emitter too, so if you're used to a 32" blade in the prophecy you may still want one in the archon.

I appreciate it! I will get the 36" for it since it does sit deeper. I'm fine if its around 32". I just didn't want it to be so short for a single blade saber. Point For you again! |

Thanks Drahcir! I just measured the blade in my Prophecy and its 30" so it does sit a couple inches in. I still think I will go with the 36" since it sits 3-4 inches deep..to make it 32-33 inches...appreciate the help! Point! |
