I myself prefer to use a saberstaff. I wanted to know what others preferred too.

Single bladed saber all the way.

In viridian, please.

No shoto.

Although, some of my single blade sabers have Madcow's 'Shoto' font... which is awesome, btw!

Shoto for me :) I'm short.
Saber staff is also awesome.

My preference depends on the combat situation

one vs one - single blade or staff

one vs many - dual(twins or single with shoto) or staff

roaming around at a con looking awesome - single or staff


now I will give a preview, I am working on a project that will be the best parts of a staff and a single bladed saber

I vote for the single blade.

I do like the staffs and see there usefulness  :maul:

I have used both :D.

I like a long/shoto form rather than just dual blades.

The staff with the shoto just feels awkward to me. I never could get used to the different blade lengths. It threw me off.

Project sounds like fun. Unfortunately I don't have the time or the resources to modify lightsabers. I wish you luck.

People tend to dis lightsabers because they're from a sci fi story. A lightsaber is a lethal weapon that deserves respect... even if it is made out of plastic.

I prefer saber, but that is just because my background is in fencing so I have a lot more experience with sword, dual sword, and sword and dagger than with staff.

carry a staff, use one blade first, two if needed. once I have more 3 or more blades against me, I make a quick twist and unleash dual-wielded-fury on all who oppose me.

Always thought if I were a Knight, it would have to be blue.

But if I were a Master, I would want to have a viridian green blade.

Single blade, all the way! Easier to handle and more elegant in my opinion. :)

Definately single blade. Simple. Easier to weild than a staff. But it's deadly.
Yeah, Sidd, about your GF will hate you and your friends will not understand you, I can relate to your feeling. All of my family members thinks i'm crazy for collecting "plastic with neon light". My GF think I'm spending my money on a useless things. They are all thinks that I'm childish and stupid for collecting lightsabers. Hahaha.....
But, it's worth it...
