Conclusion

...Nightsword's key attributes include a smart tunable weight system, 10 programmable buttons and a highly regarded optical sensor.

The Nightsword RGB is another useful addition to Corsair's burgeoning range of high-performance gaming mice.

Aimed specifically at those enthusiasts who prefer to fine-tune the heft of their pointer, Nightsword's key attributes include a smart tunable weight system, a contoured profile well suited to large hands, 10 programmable buttons and a highly regarded optical sensor.

Enough ammunition for Corsair's latest mouse to be worthy of consideration, but for me, Nightsword is still second to Ironclaw when it comes to comfort and presentation. Here's hoping the smart weight system is added to an Ironclaw v2; that really would be close to perfection.

The Good
 
The Bad
Adjustable weight
10 programmable buttons
Comfy for large hands
Precise optical sensor
 
Flashy design an acquired taste
Pinky left dangling

Resembles my Logitech G502 big time. Might pick one up when my 502 dies.

Is what I was thinking, it is very very similar to my G502. I'll try and check it out at my local Currys, if they stock it.
I really don't want my mouse to feel like an…er… adult toy.

That looks like something you'd find misplaced at the local dogging spot.
I'll never own one, simply because they called it Nightsword.

I mean, seriously?!

I'm fairly familiar with such things, but never seen any that look remotely like a mouse…. In fact, I've only seen one meme that even suggests it.
