Title: The Dark War Glaive Blazing Red Post by: JdiKnhtJMH on April 10, 2011, 08:56:48 AM I want to start this off with a photograph, though I can't get it too clear thanks to the brightness of the blade.
(http://i1141.photobucket.com/albums/n586/jarret921/IMAG0255.jpg) It's hard to see, but that's my arm, and under the choke of that lightsaber is my index finger, and the saber is balanced on it. This is the best balanced Ultrasaber product I've ever owned, and that really thrills the hell out of me. I like a saber with great balance and style, and the War Glaive and Dark version have that in spades. (http://i1141.photobucket.com/albums/n586/jarret921/IMAG0250.jpg) I got it with the silver claws to add a little bit more style and contrast and I think that's the way to go with this particular model. I later added a strip of aluminum tape above the activator for a little personal flair, but that's the only alteration I could imagine making to such a perfect weapon. (http://i1141.photobucket.com/albums/n586/jarret921/IMAG0226.jpg) This saber even photographs well! It's just that nice. I like the way they did the pommel piece on the rear, it has holes cut out for sound if I ever want to put any in, and if I was going to put sound into any of my sabers it'd be this one. Here's another picture just because.

Title: Re: The Dark War Glaive Blazing Red Post by: Darth Zovan on October 10, 2011, 09:58:50 PM wow the red looks really really good in this picture...ive been wanting a red lightsaber for the longst time now and ive seen the darth vader force fx lightsaber and it
isnt that bright...so is this one bright? It looks like it is =] Title: Re: The Dark War Glaive Blazing Red Post by: Kham-Ryn Kurios on October 10, 2011, 10:14:37 PM Just got my Dark War Glaive today in a Darkened CG, it's really awesome. ;D
I also went with Silver Claws. 8) Glad you like ur Glaive, My wife absolutely loves it. Title: Re: The Dark War Glaive Blazing Red Post by: darth tratus on October 10, 2011, 11:42:50 PM every time i see a dark war glaive i get jealous because i have an unfinished one. i actually got into an argument with my mom because every time i ask her if we can go get a soldering kit she has an excuse. the silver claws is the best fit for this saber(my opinion) looks cool in red. mine is va and will have a yellow av switch.. kahm sounds like you got a cool one yourself ;)
Title: Re: The Dark War Glaive Blazing Red Post by: Zren Tobas on October 11, 2011, 01:32:53 AM Nice saber. I want to get the saber the same way for my wife but the light side War Glaive with black claws and in Consular Green with Obsidian. Her favorite color is green so I'm going to get her a green saber in the future.
Title: Re: The Dark War Glaive Blazing Red Post by: Gaius on October 11, 2011, 01:39:48 AM I really love the War Glaive--especially the window emitter on the top. I have a Raven on order but everytime I see the War Glaive it has me second guessing myself. Enjoy! :)

([url]http://i1141.photobucket.com/albums/n586/jarret921/IMAG0255.jpg[/url]) It's hard to see, but that's my arm, and under the choke of that lightsaber is my index finger, and the saber is balanced on it. This is the best balanced Ultrasaber product I've ever owned, and that really thrills the hell out of me. I like a saber with great balance and style, and the War Glaive and Dark version have that in spades. Balancing ofcourse depends on weighth of both blade and pommel. Can you tell me what blade grade you used here? Mid-Grade or Heavy-Grade..? Title: Re: The Dark War Glaive Blazing Red Post by: Master Bluespike74 on February 25, 2012, 02:59:35 PM I bought mine with a Heavy Grade Blade and the balance point is right where he has it in the picture.
Title: Re: The Dark War Glaive Blazing Red Post by: Stephen Strange on February 25, 2012, 03:40:13 PM Thanks,
I plan midgrade blade.. but I also am thinking of the catalyst pommel. ... So balance should end up fine in the end again. Title: Re: The Dark War Glaive Blazing Red Post by: Arakan Steele on February 25, 2012, 07:05:05 PM Very nice! I'm waiting for my DWG to arrive in the next couple of days. Mine's going to be BR also, but I opted for the red illuminated AV switch and I also got the Obsidian sound board. Seeing everyone else getting theirs in, I can't wait to unpack mine!
So, get ready for some more DWG pics because I WILL be posting them! ;D |
