Trying to decide on a saber, Spectre maybe

[BatMike90]

I've seen nothing but praise for the Spectre

Same here.

I get what you're both saying. I tend to have hands that are slightly larger, and the specter fits perfectly. I can use it as a single handed saber or more comfortably as a two handed saber. It spins beautifully even though I'm not very good at spinning. I can strike from any angle with it. All around, I'd have to say it is an excellent saber. And if your hands are not larger than say average, it'll still fits fairly comfortably in your hands. I honestly think it is a saber worth having.

Thanks everyone, I think I'm going to wait for the next same and pick it up.  Probably without the engraving. But still......

Well the new sale is here and I'm thinking of finally getting it.  Sorry for asking the same question, every review I see has this thing as 'huge', 'beast', 'larger than anything in collection'.

I'm about 5'4" or so.  Anyone else about this height think it is a good fit?

Thanks and I hope I'm not being a total pest.

Ken, don't worry about it. You're not being a pest. Nothing wrong with gathering information before you purchase. Just because we love the Spectre doesn't make it a saber that is right for you. Take some time and ask your questions. Use the Force if necessary.  It's your saber, your collection. By the way, my daughter, 4ft 11in tall, says it's bigger than she expected, but it is awesome. If not for you, the Bellicose feels right in smaller hands too.

I appreciate the comments. If your 4ft 11in daughter likes the Spectre then that's enough for convincing I need. It is on order.
