The Korbanth Y3 lightsaber is a compact, machined lightsaber hilt. The machined hilt is manufactured by a United States machine shop. The hilt measures 6.008 inches across from the emitter tip to the end of the pommel (not including the length of the shroud). The outside diameter (OD) is about 1.12 inches. Korbanth Y3 accepts a 7/8 inch diameter blade (not included). The hilt kit also includes a second emitter for a more accurate display piece (Note: The display emitter cannot hold a blade).
