A Bane's Heart Electrum Wind will be cool to see Smiley Something different for an iconic hilt Tongue

Yeah, I love my dual prophecys but I wanted something a little more flashy. Currently all of my sabers have a dark side look to them, this will mix it up a bit I think.

So many good reviews of the prophecy makes me really consider it for a stunt saber I am wanting.

Well. Let me tell you that you want the av switch, because the guarded one has a habit of turning off when your hand brushes it. You will also probably want to avoid the covertec, as it gets in the way. Maybe switch out the pommel with an emperors hand one so it has a lower profile.

I don't like the feel of av switches on stunt sabers. They are more uncomfortable than on stunts then they are on sound sabers. It's because on stunts, the button does not pop back out to where it is even with the rest of the switch. If that doesn't make sense, that's okay.

It makes perfect sense. The latching AV switches are horrid. I love the guarded latching switches. Such a perfect *click* when you press them Smiley

I could never do a guarded switch again, on account of how easily they break in fighting lol. Just about all of my and my friend's switches have broken in just about all areas of the switch that can break. I get what you mean about the latching av switch, the guarded one definitely has such a satisfying springiness and click to it. It just doesn't suit my needs (though not everyone gets a lightsaber to use in full contact sparring Tongue )

non of my guarded switches have ever broken on me so. I always avoid them while gripping/dueling anyway and I've gotten so used to the covertech wheels they don't really bother me. I do wish US's would put the Electrum Wind pommels in the pommels section though. I want me a black one Tongue I do plan to get me a full saber at some point though. Always liked the style of Mace Windu's lightsaber so I'll still be doing my own take on it =]

I'm starting to feel the same way when I get non-illuminated AV switches. I've become fond of the feel and sound of the click on those.

Hey Zren, you can buy one by purchasing a Dark Shock pommel and in the order comments specify that you would like to “SUB FOR ELECTRUM WIND BLACK FINISH POMMEL” .  That's how I bought mine, following instructions that Marlena gave me. You may want to email info@ultrasabers.com, though, before you place the order just to confirm.  I just did this on Dec. 8, 2016 and put my black Electrum Wind pommel on my Arbiter.

It could be that circumstances have changed there, so keep that in mind, but here's a copy of the email I received from Martha (my mistake, it wasn't Marlena) - I got to meet Martha at FanX this month, too!:

Hello Shane,
 
Thank you for your interest in Ultrasabers.  I was able to check on this for you and confirmed that we are able to offer the Electrum Wind Black Finish Pommel separately at this time, please purchase a Dark Shock Pommel from here: https://www.ultrasabers.com/product-p/z-pommel-darkshock.htm and in the order comments please specify that you would like to “SUB FOR ELECTRUM WIND BLACK FINISH POMMEL” and we can get that done for you.  Parts usually ship out within 1-3 business days, so if you place your order today this should be to you very soon!

Here's what I got.

Thank you for your continued interest in Ultrasabers. Please see my responses below:
 
The Emperor’s Hand Pommel is only offered in Silver or Black. We would not be able to make this pommel in Gold. Sorry about that.
 
We are not able to offer the Electrum Wind Pommel as a standalone part. We are only able to offer the pommels that you see on our website here https://www.ultrasabers.com/category-s/86.htm
 
Thanks for choosing Ultrasabers. Feel free to email us here with any other questions or concerns.

It's possible that the demand outweighs the ability to have additional parts. Also, I SWEAR I typed this post up before and then it was gone. I might have forgot to hit post though.

That is obviously a sign that it was time for me to get off of my computer and go to bed.
