Ok, now you're confusing me. Are you sure you know the difference between a pike and a staff?
Ok, perhaps pike is the wrong term. I'm adding three yari extensions to a saber. Essentially making a staff/walking stick - with a burny end. I have a limp anyway, so this makes perfect sense. I have no idea why I didn't think of this sooner...Oh wait, I do know. I'm simply not that smart.  |

Lord Rapine, just make sure you don't try to put your weight on the blade end...it won't grip anything. I had a minor injury recently to my toe and tried to lean on my Flamberge, so do beware that.
Hopefully over next weekend I'll (finally) be shooting a video review of my saber so you'll see why proportionally that saber worked proportionally with me to where I would even try that.

Layana, those pics look awesome. You also get a point for that crazy staff. Never seen a crossguard hilt as part of a staff before, lol.
It's also pleasing to see that you are a fan of the Prophecy as well. (going by your sig)

Like a blue one? (more will follow after the batteries have recharged^^) Looks good, especially with the blue power switch. Not TOOOOO Light Side thanks to the hilt. How does the grip feel on the V2 with all that detailing? I would not have changed what I was going to get because of the work I knew I was going to do on mine, but that was something I wondered about. |

The question is, are you alive, and living your life? Or just here, and watching your life go by?

Prowl: thank you! I cannot really wield this saberstaff-thing...  it's too heavy and too bulky. Yes, I have a Prophecy (now sent in for repair) and a Dark Prophecy on the way (waiting to be shipped), I think they're awesome! But my favourite saber is the Dark Shock, cannot wait to have it Justicar: it's actually a white LED on the switch, but the light of the blue LED makes it look blueish. The handling is ok, not as smooth as with the Prophecy or even with the Dominix, but the detailing is not what bothers me... I will write another review, then I can explain this a little bit better Until then, enjoy this picture:  |

I'm very much liking that sword. As I mentioned in the raffle thread to Jed, my Shock LE is hands down the most comfortable saber I have for spinning and practicing with, although I did take off the wheel.

So, when dueling with a Flamberge, I'm gonna guess you guys DON'T count hilt hits? XD
