Title: Redemption Video Review
Post by: zepik on January 03, 2011, 09:30:52 AM
*This is a re-post of my redemption review from the old forum as per ultra's request.  I also have text/pic reviews of my other 2 sabers the Liberator and Prophecy which I will re-post as well.  Hope this is useful ;)

Specs:
The Redemption Hilt is approx 12.5 inches long with a outside diameter of about 1.5".  An average 36" blade protrudes 33.25 inches from the hilt, giving it an overall length of 45.5"

All in all, another outstanding product from ultrasabers.  I love it.  It's size and weight adds a new dimension to my growing collection.  If I was to pick one of my sabers to do some no-nonsense, heavy dueling, it would be the redemption for sure.  The thing is a beast.  Looking forward to the next saber I'll inevitably purchase.  I don't know what it will be, but based on what I've received from them so far, it'll be amazing.

A side by side comparison shot of the redemption beside a prophecy and a liberator.  To give you an idea how big it is compared to other sabers.

I notice all of your sabers have the UltraEdge blade on them.  I would like to recommend that you give the Heavy-Grade blade (non-UltraEdge) a try.  I've tried all of their blades.  At first, the Mid-Grade UltraEdge was my favorite...  Until I got my first Heavy-Grade Non-UltraEdge :)

Give it a try, I think you'll reallllllly like it... 

Having all those bonus points from saber purchases makes it easy to give one a try ;)

I just saw this review on YouTube and now want one.  Thanks for posting the review!  I'm particularly appreciative of the measurements!  Thank you for that!

Will the Oppressor ever be offered again?

Will the Redemption or the Oppressor be offered with sound someday?

Nice Review!!! I thank you simply for giving us a nice side by side view of the Prophecy and the Liberator, it answers any questions I would have about the Prophecy's length.
