thanks a lot Yoda its in great shape too :) I'm very pleased with it.

I was just going to use it as a belt prop and/ or stunt saber.
If I stick a blade in it,

I wanted to go with something like this, so it could be seen well in daylight.
the MR blades dont light up well in daylight and they just look like a white stick.
these blades are only $12 for a 30 inch blade and they sort of "light up" in full sun.
the plan was to just buy a few of these in various colors and then use them as removeable/interchangeable blades for my belt prop.
(no electronics, just the colored blade)
