This is a unique saber right now. Because it's a prototype it's not finished so I'm showing some options Im considering. This saber was offered to me when I placed an order for the crimson reaper and the order went through even though it was out of stock. This is the saber as I received it.   As you can see the curved body is rough mill. So I decided I would do a wrap on it, like the handle of many swords. I am still experimenting with options but this is my first go, it's a basic spiral wrap.   I dont like the way the spiral wrap looks or stays together. My next wrap will probably be a long turks head knot if I can actually figure out the knot. Everyone on YouTube make it look easy but trust me it's anything but. When I have something I like I will move from paracord to leather. I have black and read leather that I will use on the final. Of course I'd like to hear any ideas you all may have. DETAILS: Body: Curved Crimson Reaper Emitter: Crimson Reaper Pommel: Crimson Reaper Emitter LED: Green, Orange Flash on Clash Switch: AV Red Sound: Obsidian v3 |

I had heard of this in another members post where he had the same situation happen but he chose a different option. I was wondering if we would ever get to see this.

Aye. This would make a lot of people very happy. I hope that they move forward with the idea in more than just the reaper body piece. If they could extend the idea to be an MHS coupler or extender, this would create all kinds of possibilities.

I'm in! I'm totally getting a curved saber if this starts selling regularly. =] Or has it already? Now I'm even more excited for Ultra Sabers. =] I knew they would find a way for curved hilts.

I always imagined that the curved hilt design would be
Emitter, body, threaded pommel, threaded "curve coupler" then another piece

Fascinating. Definitely a prototype, I guess, but it does look like the idea has been thought about at length. Thanks for sharing, and kudos on a unique lightsabre!

Yea I was very happy to get it. I'm also happy to be able to share it with you all. As far as pics with the claws, I may wait to see if I can get my mod to the claws done first. I want to grind them down into blades instead of jus claws. Finding time is rough because I'm working a lot to have extra money at GenCon in 3 weeks so time is short. If you have never used a curved saber before, let me tell you it's amazing. Unlike a normal blade it feels more like an extension to your arm. There are certain moves you can't do, but there are others you get more speed and power from. The other advantage is that with the location of the Obsidina board, it's motion is slightly exaggerated so you can fine tune it a lot. Hopefully I get some time this weekend to work on my turks head knot to see how that looks on the handle. Now I just need to find someone to take my designs of a sith mask and sculpt it, make a positive so I can vacume press some mask.  I'm building a full character up. |

This makes me want to order a Crimson Reaper even more. But I'm wanting an AB saber next. Lol. Or if they are doing it on all sabers for a short run thing or something. Looks awesome though. Wouldn't mind a curved Bane.
