Recently I got old designed SF Reliant from my friend.
I felt in love much more than latest design.
Here we go!




Sharp curved emitter is indeed perfect.
Sexy proportion of big emitter- thin part- thick grip part-round pommel.



Hilt body is so much Detailed in dual tone. I love Circuit lines.
Activation box was removed by former owner for easy handling. But I can reattach it.




As for modification, I burned emitter cover and opened a window.
Get more better!

This hilt is one kind of SaberForge's regacy.
Only the pommel is disadvantage of old design, I think.
I will replace it with latest pommel someday!

Thanks for watching!

That is a very cool saber, and the mod you did to the emitter just adds to that coolness. One day, when the ASP program is readily available, I may attempt a modified Reliant build for myself.

Thanks for sharing!
Imagine what you will know tomorrow....

Very nice.
what did you use to burn/cut the emitter open to create that window?
That's something I've always considered even on the new reliant

Badass Reliant! What kind of material are you using for the wrap?

Thanks!

I just used a match to burn emitter shroud.
Then, wash smoke stain by soft cloth.
Repeat burning/washing until you get good result.
Be careful do not damage internal electronics B)
Once you get satisfaction, apply clear coating spray to keep stains.



The shroud is removable, I don't know so does new one or not.
At first I used a drill to make some holes, then used dremel to connect holes.
You need endurance too :)

Thanks man!
It's black hockey tape former owner applied.
I will replace it to real leather ;)

I drawed black lines on the pommel,
And real leather wrapping was done.
To get more perfection!
