Rave contacted us a few months ago about building a saber pike for him. We were thrilled to make another one. The last one we did, we worked with Do-Clo to create a really nice Pike.
We wanted this to be a collaboration as well and went through the list of Sabersmith's we hadn't worked with yet. Rhyen Skytracker of Saber Concepts seemed like a good fit, and after talking to him, ...he seemed up to the task. And he did not disappoint! My favorite part is that emitter, .....it's really cool. I might have to get Rhyen to make a few more of those.
We want this partially MHS compatible and needed to be able to break down into small pieces, ..to powdercoat and to be able to ship overseas.
The pieces were done by Rhyen and we used an MHS main body as the center of the saber.
The hilt uses a MR soundboard and the main LED is a red Bin II LUX III. The entire Pike and saber are powder coated in gloss black.
The hilt seperates from the pike so Raze can use it as a typical lightsaber. The Pike section is hollow and allows him to place his blade in it for easier storage.
The pommel/Pike end is a modified Darth Maul pommel.
Rave, we hope u like it, it's a really cool piece and might be one of my favorites.
Rhyen, u rock man, ..thanks for helping us make this, your work is solid and I hope we get to work together again.
