Licensed forcepike question

Post by kornishpyxee »

On the Krayt Clan forum I've read that some purchased the licensed gaffije stick and injected it with spray foam to firm it up. I was wondering if anyone has tried this with the licensed forcepike?

The rubies force pike tends to be quite over sized and bulky. For the price of that you could make a selfmade one that is more durable. A friend of mine's Rubies pike broke the second day that had it.

I got a Rubies just to look at and mock-up (bought it for almost nothing). They are REALLY flimsy, even if you fill it with foam it is sure to crack the first time you use it. They look a little off too, the top is really "chunky."
