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 Smiley

I wouldn't suggest using a vice. You'll end up busting the threads on the emitter and damage the saber.

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.

I suggest using this one: http://www.amazon.com/Rubber-Strap-Wrench-6-in/dp/B0002H338C/ref=sr_1_8?ie=UTF8&qid=1391184538&sr=8-8&keywords=strap+wrench
The rubber belt won't scratch your hilt, and I think it's also better for the threads.

The war glaive design has stayed consistent with no design changes...I agree with the advice above for getting emitter off

I was going to line the vice with rubber so as not to damage it, just couldn't get a good grip myself. Managed to get it loose anyways, cheers guys! Apologies if I seem dumb Smiley
