Often the colored blue/red emitters and pommels are not sold separately and also the matching covertec wheels. I don't think that the Dorinian ones are for sale or the colored Menace.  |

Already pre-ordered the Butcher in VA.
Been wanting this particular saber's look since I got into Ultrasabers
More parts available for custom work is also a good thing

Exactly. I wish they would sell the different colored MHS parts, though |

The day the presale launched I picked up both of these sabers. I can't wait for October to get here! I'm looking forward to seeing what the special blade plugs will look like as well.

i want the butcher really bad. i already have it designed. HOWEVER, i think i will have to grab the Spectre first. i really want to get in on this raffle. and i would love to get the Spectre for 10% off. i want it in DVA, but i've seen that already. my other choice would be Guardian Blue. of course, it doesn't matter. i will get it with quick disconnects.

I just read that the body diameter of the Butcher is 1.6 inches. I hope that number is already factoring in the fins, because man...long story short - I have small hands. My first saber was a Scorpion, which is 1.5 inches in body diameter, and it's borderline unwieldy. If that 1.6" doesn't include the fins, then I just bought a $340 wallhanger. That would suck. Monumentally.
Anyone have a clue on those dimensions?

That may not be including the fins, though those also have a taper to them. It's really hard to tell from the video. The body has that inset to it, and the taper to the fins might be just about 1.6" right at the sweet spot. |

Guh. I've been looking at pics of it, and it's supposed to be 13" long, just looking at it's width compared to length really does make it look 1.6" wide without the fins included at all. That's seriously enormous. |

I sure hope it doesn’t run that big |

Yeah, just looking at it next to the Savior in the video, it looks a lot fatter. The Savior is likely standard MHS 1.45", or 1.5" in the grip area. |

@Deep, how does the claw grips feel on the edges, nice and smooth? Wouldn't mind the Butcher either to be honest but I'm liking the Savior more though

Got to handle the Butcher and see the Savior prototypes at FanX Salt Lake today.
The Butcher is going to be a hefty hilt, along the lines of the Electrum Wind in general feel.
I was wearing gloves, but the Butcher felt good in my hand
