Title: Reaper with knuckle duster Post by: Moebius Omega on April 09, 2013, 08:51:45 PM Hey guys, I was watching Blue's review of his EG reaper raffle prize, and he mentioned that the claws had a bit of a knuckle duster image about them.
Now I got to thinking, the top claw wouldn't really function as one protruding up from the end of the emmitter, but what if it was turned around. I had to remove the shroud, and ended up scuffing one of my blades quite badly in the process (the holes for the claw screws weren't chamfered enough on mine) but this is the result: (http://i45.tinypic.com/x560k3.jpg) (http://i45.tinypic.com/14m9g7s.jpg) Title: Re: Reaper with knuckle duster Post by: srams on April 09, 2013, 08:56:30 PM OK I really like that, it would be nice if your fingers could actually fit through like brass knuckles but the holes look too small

Like srams said it would be great if the holes were big enough to use properly though, as it stands I can just about get a finger through the largest one Title: Re: Reaper with knuckle duster Post by: jonesy360 on April 10, 2013, 07:56:44 AM Hey guys, I was watching Blue's review of his EG reaper raffle prize, and he mentioned that the claws had a bit of a knuckle duster image about them.

I shall look for another Sith sounded saber. xp Nice Reaper though.

Title: Re: Reaper with knuckle duster Post by: jonesy360 on April 11, 2013, 10:29:14 AM i ordered a 40 " blade for my reaper,ill have to cut about 5 inches off it to remove the very bad scratches the screws made,i have drilled [countersunk]the holes more to stop them doing it again,its the same for both claw holes[blade holder and pommel]not countersunk enough,it was an easy fix,but dissapointed and cost me a 40' blade >:(
