Heavy hilts

[Phatell]

Hey guys, im quite a big fellah som im looking for a heavy, sturdy hilt. I got a bane and i really like it and im considering to get 1 more saber. Could you please tell me wich ones are your 3 heaviest hilts?

[Kham-Ryn Kurios]

Raven, War Glaive and Bellicose.

I own all three and All of them rule.

The Raven, War Glaive, and Consular

[Kaiden Shardsbane]

Raven, Raven Super Sith edition, and Raven RGB.  I'm a fan of the raven. 

Seriously though, I'd have to say...  Raven, Archon v2, and Shock.  War Glaive is also a big heavy one, but I personally am not a fan of the 4-claw design.

the war glaive is a heavy saber

[Kham-Ryn Kurios]

Not to be an ass but I assume big you mean tall.

If so, you probably have big hands and as Tratus said, "The War Glaive is a heavy saber."

But,

It is also long like the Bane, plus a choke point and plenty of empty space for your off hand to grip the hilt.

Yeah from what I understand the Raven is the big heavy beast saber in the US arsenal... probably due to those big claws.  Apart from that, my pals here hit the nail on the head - War Glaive is a good choice.  You already have a Bane, which is a nice big badass hilt, otherwise I'd recommend that.

I decided to go for a Bellicose cos of its similarity to the Bane. Imo Raven requires red AV switch (hehe) so maybe il get one once the guys get restocked on em. Going with Master Vidnyls concept of "Jedifying" a sith-ish beast, iow, it will be CG. Besides i take it the Bellicose have pretty much same mass and weight as the Bane....or is that incorrect?

Yes they are about the same length, I would say the Bellicose is just a little heavier.

When I fight with one hand on my Bane I don't tire as quickly as I do when I use the bellicose with one hand.

If you want me to post a picture of the two next to each other just lemme know.

Please do!

Here you go!


Heaviest From Left to Right: Raven, Ballicose, Bane, Dark War Glaive.

Raven - Heaviest, a beast of a saber not suited well for spinning, most def. a hard hitting Claymore in the spirit of the Bane. Not my Fav but my Sith friends love it.

Bellicose - It's long, it's fat but it is sturdy enough for those two handed Bane strikes. This replaced my broken Liberator, I'm only 5'6" and I find this saber on par with the Bane .

Bane - Here for comparison but one of the most well balanced sabers I have. A strong Two-Hander and capable one hander. This is a great Bastard/ Hand and a Half sword.

Dark War Glaive - It's not very heavy at all, the choke point acts as the perfect fulcrum to compliment the length of the hilt, again a saber to be best used with two hands but is so light you don't feel it when one handing. One of the BEST sabers they have put out, By far.


NOW, none of these have sound and I know the soundboards add weight BUT, I believe these qualities still apply even with sound.

Hope this helps brother.

Anymore questions feel free to ask, I like to help, but I will be going to the Court House to get my marriage license today.

So for the sake of me not seeing your post send me a PM and I'll be sure to get it.
