I am late to the party but I have to second this! Simply amazing! What inspired you to combine the Graflex and Katana pieces? It went together like peanut butter and jelly. Excellent!

The style of the black parts on the Redeemer on a subconscious level, aslo being the first Lightsaber that I purchased was the Darth Vader 1996.

Then in June/July of this year I began watching Samurai movies that influenced Star Wars to its basic core.

Samurai 7

and Sanjuro

Oishi's portrayal in 47 Ronin

Sitting on this configuration of ASP parts from August was agonising.... then receiving the shipment was a dream and building it was unbelievable. The covertech knob was reversed on purpose to act as a stop for the second hand, found the Graflex body too think and went with the Sorcerer body and Mauler switch, hence the name "Demon Kill".

Meditating while listening to 30 Seconds to Mars made creating the Akuma Kiru a reality.

Thank you Saber Forge, and everyone for your comments
