another review of an amazing product.
Previously I had purchased a Dominix V4 and after falling in love with it, decided to purchase another Dominix + Coupler in order to make an excellent, if not lengthy, saberstaff.
As with the previous one, it is in Blazing Red.
the hilt is very lengthy, close to 2' and so can be awkward in close quarters, a problem shared by all saberstaffs, so it is not unique in that area. This seems to be a good staff for aggressive attacks and power strikes, which work well for me as I prefer Djem-so and Juyo as my fighting guidelines.
HIGHLY recommended for anyone looking to enter into the world of the double-bladed sabering, though perhaps the Phantasm V4 would suit those who are concerned for hilt length.

I may be Sith, but that does not make one a murderer, nor a barbarian.
Seek the knowledge of the Dark Side, bend it to your will, utilize the strength of your passion, but not be enslaved to it.
to be enslaved is the way of the undisciplined apprentice, but you desire to be a master.

Either you like Star Wars... Or you're wrong.

Great review on a saber staff with many great points about the AV switches, the length and spinability, especially given your height compared to the length of that hilt. Your recommendations to everyone are greatly appreciated. I think your setup works well. I personally like the extra room for grips, but then I have larger hands, too. I think yours turned out very well, indeed, and hope you have fun with it. Point for the very useful and helpful review!

On embedding the video, you just need to remove the 's' from https: in the link, and it will automatically embed like this:

US makes adjustable couplers that allow you to line up two hilts however you want.
