My 4th place Raffle prize was a Aeon v3 stunt saber in consular green. Which is just great because when deciding on my first saber this hilt made it into my top 5. It has the sleek clean look and feel that I am drawn to. I had planned on doing a whole unboxing video since I had no idea what the raffle prize would be, but my wife gave me a look that said "I have indulged you this far, but no further" so pictures it is....maybe I'll do a video review with a buddy when she's out of the house  That's a very nice crimsom Scorpion there. Makes me wish I was a bigger guy.  Too bad about the unboxing vid...looking forward to a review one though. +1 |

So I got my raffle prize in last night. First off I'd like to say how surprised I was that my order came in at the same time. I ordered a Crimson Scorpion (no claw), obsidian premium sound, Artic Blue (white flash on clash), with various other options. This hilt was on backorder and when I sent in an email asking for a guesstimate eta I was told it wouldn't be available for fabrication until the end of April. I was fine with that, thats not a very long delay for a backordered item so no worries. But it showed up more than a full month BEFORE that earliest time. Awesome job and thank you guys so much  it was a wonderful surprise. That hilt is shown in my pictures with a Overlord Pommel, instead of the normal Crimson Scorpion Pommel because I thought the spiky bits looked a bit too ostentatious. I wanted something a bit sleeker and more elegant, and I am very happy with this slight alteration. Side note: The Overlord Pommel makes the sabers sound a bit louder than the original Scorpion Pommel. My 4th place Raffle prize was a Aeon v3 stunt saber in consular green. Which is just great because when deciding on my first saber this hilt made it into my top 5. It has the sleek clean look and feel that I am drawn to.   I had planned on doing a whole unboxing video since I had no idea what the raffle prize would be, but my wife gave me a look that said "I have indulged you this far, but no further" so pictures it is....maybe I'll do a video review with a buddy when she's out of the house Very nice sabers you got from the raffle |

Received my raffle prize today; very pleased with it!  Excellent work! Nice! That looks like a Graflex pommel on it instead of one of the stock Manticore pommels...very cool! |

Is that a Graflex pommel Sedsti, or a short Manticore one? |

It's definitely not the low Manticore pommel, I think Sky is right, it looks like a Graflex pommel, or maybe a Menace pommel. Looks good on the Manticore though. |

Just a little reminder from your friendly, neighborhood Sith Lord: We do have the "official" Gallery thread for posting your Raffle Entries & Prizes and that one hasn't been updated in a while: http://www.saberforum.com/index.php?topic=29442.0Let's see if we can fill that one up with as many Raffle pics as possible since that's the one people will often search for to look at the prizes! Thanks! |

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.
