What??? But ... But... But....
*sigh*
Yeah, ok... ;-)
Uh huh? The only times I ever got something different than what I expected from my order were: 1) SY is wasn't 100% R+G, so that was a little bit of a let down. 2) and when I ordered my Bellicose, it showed up with a Beta V4 unexpectedly.  (#WINN) |

Beta as in they were still testing them, before their official release. I would say they became available about 1.5 years ago. |

Ah, ok. Oh well, I was thinking they were upgrading the existing Bellicose. I like the look of the hilt but I always found it to be a little thick for superior handling. The Aeon and Sentinels are far superior in actual handling.

Nope, standard Belli, V4 Obsidian. You must have small hands. I remember when Nox got hers, she described it as large. I thought it was perfect. |

Um... Hands are actually quite big. I just much prefer the size of the Aeon and Sentinel's choke points. :-) I could handle the Bellicose just fine, but it never felt secure. Had the same problem with the Guardian. |

I feel you. I thought the Scorp was perfectly sized for my grip, but I opt for a thinner hilt in a gloved hand. Plus the weight of the Scorp is a liability. |

The Scorpion is on my list. :-) I would love to get it with Emerald, but I'd settle for one with ObLite in either SY or AS...

What about balance, providing a counter weight to a lengthy hilt such as with the Scorpion or the Mantis? I find that it kind of does on mine. Not sure if that would hold true for the SS Raven, but then the claws on that could really serve as weapons if your saber was damaged and that was your only weapon. |

Actually, intimidation isn't always sinister. If the fearsome look of my weapon precludes combat, then it has served to both bring about the desired end AND preserve live. How is that sinister? :-) The weapon is not evil - only the one who wields it. |
