I'm assuming you've never had your cells explode =)
You assume correctly, but I've also never dueled with it... so I cannot speak for it's durability. I really like your saber, that was the one with the bass-ackwards cf issue, right? I assume you got it resolved =)
eastern57 - I was looking in your photobucket album and was wondering what the gold ring piece (right before the blade holder) on your MHS 3 is?
by the way, I really like the MHS 3, potentially my favorite MHS hilt design I've seen thus far
Thanks again! It's a "brass colored" ring from an MR Mace. There's 2, this is the smaller one. It's situated over an o-ring between the BH and hilt, held in place with pressure. It's held fairly tightly, but again, I don't duel. I'm getting custom BH for it, so stay tuned!

i really like the almost randomness created by that plus its a really cool color
Actually, it has been wearing off a tiny bit, just from me handling it a lot. Naturally it's wearing off in specific places - where my hands go. Once I start to see different lines, I'll seal it. But otherwise, it's not sticky, tacky, smelly, gooey, oily, flaky...etc...
And thanks for the compliments :)
