MHS Main Body Style 4~Possible durability issue?
I was reading the reviews on this part and more than one person mentioned breaking this part while dueling. I am having a MHS saber built and the design calls for this part. Now while I don't plan on doing any "Guerrilla Style" dueling, I do want my saber to be able to handle spirited dueling at least.
Could anyone who has a saber made with this style section and has dueled with their sabers please chime in?
Thanks in advance,

Where is the weak portion located? is it the end near the switch hole? Or is it the part you'd normally attach a pommel to?
Here is how it's going to be used in the saber being built for me:
From equinox13's post below, then this design should be fine, right?

by most designs i've seen it's on the pommel end - opposite the switch end. if i remember right.

Thanks, man. That's exactly what I wanted to know. I'm glad too, because I REALLY like that section in the design too...

Do you think diamond knurling the larger groves on the grip end will make a difference as well?

I was thinking in between the raised grooves . But was also floating the idea of a shroud similar to the one shown above. Guess if I leave the last groove where the threads are like it is and cover it with the shroud I should be good.
Incidentally, if I were to slip O-rings into the small groves. Do you think a shroud would still fit?
