Saber Forum

This was my first purchase from Ultrasabers as well as my first ever lightsaber and I couldn't be happier with it! It's a fantastic hilt and if you're interested in it you should check out my review.

totally awesome. i left a comment on your video.

Thanks man! That saber cost me less than $100 and in my opinion it's worth every penny. I've never seen such a durable lightsaber. I've dropped it HARD multiple times onto my cement garage floor and other then the pommel scuffs it's totally fine. Honestly I kind of like the damage, looks like battle damage. I also replied to your comment on youtube about the engravings.

yeah i saw, you did such a good job..how did you do the engravings?

To do the engravings I put my hilt in a vice to hold it. But I had it half wrapped in a towel to keep the sides from getting scratched up. Then I just used a dremel and free handed it.

oh dang a dremel..lol don't know if i could do that LOL i had to look that up to see what it was and i would probably screw my saber up doing that...i wonder how well oil or acrylic pain would go on this saber?

Well if you put oil paint on your saber it would take ages to dry. Whenever I paint a picture on canvas with oil it takes several days sometimes even up to a week to dry. And id imagine with acrylic it would probably chip off over time and if you dropped it even once it would tear the paint all up. I could also see it coming off onto your hands depending where on the hilt it was. But I don't know for sure i'm just making a guess based on my experience with those types of paints.

It might work, but I'd imagine it wouldn't work as well as you want it too. I think since the hilt is so smooth the paint wouldn't have much texture to grip onto to keep it on the hilt. Unless you always kept it on a stand for display.

Hi Sabernerd0, great video review.   :)  I like the customizing you have done, a nice and different touch.  Let me know if you would like light or dark side points and I will issue a point accordingly.   8)

Thank you! Light side please

Ohio here too dude, we should meet up :P Love your Dark Initiate. I'm gonna get me a V2 LE in Consular Green myself just for fun and such with a bunch of Grab Bag Mid Grade blades. I never hit hard so yeah plus they can take as much of a hell of a beating as the Heavy Grade blades as well. Replacing all of them with my Heavy Grade blades so. PM me for meet up details if you want =]

I wanted to say a huge thanks to everyone who watched or liked my video. As of this morning it was officially picked in the video rewards program and is now featured on Ultrasabers.com in the hilt listing for the Dark Initiate le v4!
