    Default Second completed saber.

    Alright here is my second completed saber, I have 3 more on hold for a while due to funding and x-mas coming up. The hilt with out adding the claws is 10" even with it is 12 1/2". Blade is 28" total length. The claws are some old pieces of machined stainless I had saved.

    Parts:
    6"L, 1.25"ID sink tube
    1.25"ID straight slip joint
    1" to 0.75" pex/pvc pipe connector
    (internals removed)
    1" split ring pipe hanger
    1.25" mhs blade holder
    Hasbro Vader sound board and speaker
    Lux 3 amber
    1000ml amp buck puck
    TCSS standard momentary switch with TCSS bezel nut



    This shot is no flash.

    blades are only dangerous if you aren't careful... plus the sharpened edges are on the inside of the blades, which presents even less danger.

    I like it... alot. i think it looks sweet.

    Without the blades, it would be a bit plain.
    But, the blades are indeed there, and they are quite radical.
    Nice work.

    there was an entire issue with my area51 saber having very similar knife blades. and they will mount almost the same way, with the blades pointing in. and all the council members and senior saber builders were bashing me for it say its dangerous and stuff. so we are just making sarcastic remarks to it every time we see a saber with knife blades. lol.

    If I remember correctly they weren't bashing you, they simply refused to help you. It was a liability issue because you are young.

    Blades look cool. Good placement of them.

    Young or not that wasn't the only reason the area51 saber blades were frowned upon. These are very similar and albeit look "cool" they are a risquey design because of the points and inner blade which, if you caught someone finger in while messing about or heaven forbit dropped on someone foot (point first), you could cause damage.

    They were the general and hyperthetical points (excuse the pun) made about DJ saber blades.

    I think it'd be unfair to DJ to say any less of these, no matter how "cool" it looks.
