Title: War Glaive "NOOB" question Post by: Smutpedler on January 31, 2014, 01:38:58 PM Hi all, recently picked up a second hand War Glaive in the UK and the emitter seems to be very solidly on the hilt. Before I use a vice and some elbow grease, my question is; was there an older version of the War Glaive where the emitter and hilt were machined from a solid piece? I just don't want to spend a while trying to break the back of a thread if there isn't a thread there! Help would be greatly appreciated :)

I don't believe there was a version of the War Glaive that was a solid hilt before. I believe it was always an MHS saber.

The rubber belt won't scratch your hilt, and I think it's also better for the threads.
