I thought I already posted here, but I guess not. Great work LR. Points to you. Oooo! The mantihand (emperorcore?) looks WICKED!! Good eye! That's awesome . I think it would be the Emperor's Core.

Thanks Taegin. Yes, that one does look pretty sweet. I'll have to be careful, or folks will start demanding separate sales of the EH emitter...lol

A job well done, LR. The outcome is more than deserved for the work you put in. I love the look of the Manticore/Emperor's Hand mashup sabers too +1 good sir

Thank you stedsi. I'm very happy with the result. Those mash-ups have a lot of fans, it seems.

The blade actually looks very good in terms of detail.
Does it feel comfortable to hold if u use it for combat?
I am curious cause I really wanted to buy it.

Well sir, I rarely ever duel. It is quite the solid grip though. Your main hand "locks" into place, and the hilt will not turn in your hand. Also, it's lighter that I had imagined, so I presume it'd be great for that.

Both blades are nice.
Thanks for the review about the emperor's hand.
The reason why I ask this is because I join a saber duelling club. Holding it for one hour and doing drills with it is no joke.
I had some problems actually holding the standard issue for that long because of its large girth as well as sharp engraved deep straight groove cuts. Hurts especially when u are in a fight and u tense up and grip abit tighter.
The emperor's hand has certain nice aesthetic features that unfortunately come back to bite u when u are holding in an actual duel from looking practically at it.

Well done Rapine ! You have chosen the EH version the exact way I eventually will. I really like the Renegade pommel on this saber and the other mods look good. Thanks for sharing the swap outs for more MHS saber construct ideas. electronic wiring level 1.8 graduation point for you
