The Manticore is a thing of beauty, without doubt!

LOVE what you have done with the Sentinel. Did something similar with my daughters Initiate. One question though... wont the O-Rings at the choke points move around and get in the way in use?

Not so much. Most O-rings can move around on a hilt no matter where they are placed. The O-rings used on the choke points and the Emitter are thicker and hold reasonable well in place. It's not to say that they won't move if you are gripping them all the time. The same can be said about the O-rings seated in the grip section of the hilt. They can come out of place if you are wielding the saber. I put them on as a complimentary aesthetic to give the saber I typical Lightsaber look. If you do put O-rings onto a hilt be prepared to re-position them after handling.

Yeah, my daughters has lost a couple from the grip section, but that is more due to cracking up and breaking than moving around... but then she isnt spinning or anything fancy yet.. just a good solid gripp on the hilt.
My main concern was that upper choke, as that is my main grip point in what I guess would be termed more of a hand and a half style...
Without a doubt, O-Rings are an awesome addition to a silver hilt. such a simple mod with such a drastic change in look and feel!
Points for you my good man!

Many thanks and a point for the O-ring information!  Smiley Hubby is thinking about using some black O-rings for his Sentinel so as to create a more balanced, opposing look to his Dark Sentinel. You know, since the Dark Sentinel is black with silver accents, the Sentinel V4 will have the Silver with black accents. We're looking to get a quick release coupler to make a saber staff.
