Hello

I am preparing a new saber. For "martial" issue, i am making a saber with a blade of about 80 cm and a hilt of about 60 cm. I am also searching for a little diameter hilt.

So, it will be a Aeon V2 with a 32" blade completed by an empty hilt of an Aeon V2 using a V2 coupler. There will be a blade plug to end the hilt.

Thanks to D7 for this idea Wink

Just a question for those who know: When you order an empty hilt, are the two retention screw included?


to finish my order, i just have to select the color of the blade ... I have already SRD and AB sabers .... so, i want a color that complete my collection nicely ... I hesitate between CG, GB and AV ...

Your thought please?? Does anybody here has SRD, AB and one of these three colors?? Can you provide me with a picture please??

Hi Master Seb.  Here are some photos of the different stave combinations and with blade plug.  My suggestion regarding the empty hilt is to add in the order comments box to make sure to send the x2 retention screw.  Also they might be able to not drill that switch hole if it is not already done.  The av switch would look sleeker but might turn on and off easier and when you don't want it to.  Smiley

Will gather up some batteries and give you a look at the arctic blue and violet amethyst in these sabers.  My SRD is a loaded saber and therefore will overpower the stunts.  Can also provide CG and GB.  Those pics to be added later.

Thanks for these advices ... i will ask if it is possible to not drill the switch hole. If not, i will hide it with some customization Wink I will also add a commets for the screws.

Considering the switch, i think i will take an AV one because my hands slide a lot on the hilt Wink

Here's more pics.  Sorry but am going to have to use some old ones now.  Think all the blades are UE.  Have a horrible flu and likely overdosing on ginger lol.  If you want to see more colors or better pics... likely will be feeling better tomorrow. Smiley

I was about to say Consular Green would be a nice finish too Tongue I might get an Aeon V2 LE at the convention in person in a week, just because that's a hilt I've never had before. I know its simple and I should go for something higher up but oh well. Thinking either Guardian Blue or Consular Green myself. I always have a hard time choosing saber colors as well, usually takes me a couple days before I make my final decision x.x So I feel you on that part. Like do I want another green blade or blue, or go evil Sith red, or something in between Tongue

Thanks Zren Wink

Aeon V2 is a great hilt to me ... not prestigious but its lower diameter makes it the best hilt for dueling considering one hand styles (just my opinion). And i think that the point of balance is in a better place than the Initiate V2 (Once again, just my opinion).

The design is simple but i love it Tongue

Hope to post pictures soon (i am like an impatient kid since i placed my order lol )

Can't wait to see your likely ongoing modifications.  Did you come up with ideas to best cover up that switch hole ?  Smiley

Do you think it can work?
