Nice Saber Dude and congrats on the 2nd addition to your collection. (saddened to hear about the AWOL problem you had) The white is an obvious choice and it looks great too. Always had an apprehension that it looked too much like a fluorescent tube but from your pics, definitely not the case.
Am having a love/hate with the SK vs the Archon, my problem. How long is the SK hilt, from top of emitter peak to pommel? Apart from the pommel, is the hilt one piece i.e. does the emitter shroud and grip shroud separate where the inlaid grip is (like I imagine the Guardian does)? |

Always had an apprehension that it looked too much like a fluorescent tube but from your pics, definitely not the case. Its about 13inches long, it is a bit longer than most of the sabers on saberforge. It's in the same ballpark as the archon, bane, and venomous fury in terms of length. The S-shroud is a single piece but it is VERY secure to the emitter, then the body is comprised of two pieces and then the pommel. Very simple build but somehow I think it can easily be customed with some extra flare!

Light and darkness, you cannot have one without the other. To achieve equilibriem you must be in harmony with both; the path between.

I have seen Indigo in 12w form, and it is beautiful. In 12w+, it will be out of this world in brightness and color. It will be a good match for an Archon. |

Imagine what you will know tomorrow....

Very, very nice. You wouldn't know that room is dark to look at it- though I think that's because you have it in white. But very nice choice, and other people being happy makes me happy! Most of the time. Gratz.

Decline if unreasonable, do you have a pic of the seldom shown side i.e. 180 degrees from black inlay, where the kill-key & activation switch is?
The silver body looks polished too rather the anodised frosted appearance on Etsy. Is this a standard finish and at about 13 inches long is balance best achieved with a 26 or a 32? |

Congrats on your 2nd saber dude! The Silver Knight looks fantastic! I was never really sure about the white/frost color but with that saber it really looks beautiful! Good Job!

The saber is polished without a doubt, and that is standard, they replaced the anodized silver with the polished silver. Very shiny, and I went with a 32in blade, since the hilt is long 32in is my goto.

Congtraz! Glad to see you have a saber to be pleased about.
 What makes you think it is the regular white (i.e. not Frost White)? FW has a very subtle hint of blue after you stare at it for several seconds. Super bright as you said. |
