I have a couple question on securing the blade. I am thinking of buying the style 18 LED blade holder.
I would like to be able to use screws that are flush, or nearly flush with the thick outer ring on the blade holder. I think I will like this look better than an oversized thumb screw. I won't be doing any dueling with my saber.
So what I'm thinking of doing is having the blade holder drilled and tapped at four points. Think of it like north, south, east, west... around the blade holder. Then I could use 4 screws like these to secure the blade:
Of course this means I'll always have to use an allen wrench to remove the blade, but I'm OK with that.
Any thoughts? Again, I'm thinking more about the look, and trying to avoid the standard thumb screw that is often used.
thanks
