Alright, first official post of the account! Whoo!  Grin

So, I got my very first Ultrasaber in the mail about a week ago, and finally decided to make a review of it because need all the Reward Points I can get so I can buy myself an Overlord with all the fixin's.  Wink

The stat's are as follows:

  • Saber: Aeon v3 LE
  • Color: Sunrider's Destiny
  • Blade: UltraEdge Heavy Grade
  • Pommel: Regular Vented
  • Sound: Yes
  • FoC: N/A

And here's the video in which I expound the virtues of US.

<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3n0s_tjmKrI" target="_blank" class="aeva_link bbc_link new_win">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3n0s_tjmKrI</a>


A couple of things I didn't mention in the video:

1): The speaker is a bit loose. I'm sure that it's so that it can slide out easily, but it's a bit unnerving when you're spinning around something with a removable blade. However, I managed to "fix" it by taking a cotton ball and laying it next to the battery pack before sliding it back in. The speaker comes out aye-okay, and there's no more rattling.

2): The speed at which this thing arrived is insane. For reference, I live in Washington. I ordered my saber on Saturday, and it arrived on Tuesday without a scratch on it. Kudos, US shipping peoples!

3): They're not kidding when they say they these are dueling sabers! I tried out a sudo-sparring match with a friend's bokken, and neither weapon came away any worse for wear. Maybe it's because I got the Heavy Grade blade, but man it felt good when the blades hit. I almost wish we'd recorded it, 'cause it woulda made a better review than the one I threw together.  Cheesy

Great review! You get a point. I assume from your color choice and name that you would like light side points so that is what you get!

Nice review Smiley

btw, you can use a normal mini usb connector (like you may have for a digital camera) and that way you can have a play with the sounds without having to wait till your next order Cheesy but remember if it does not go in easily don't force it in Wink

Great review.  I have both a Guarded and an AV switch and I honestly hit the AV switch more often than I do my Guarded one.  So don't get bummed out about that.  Glad to see that type of pommel.  I certainly recommended getting a different pommel as I love the reverb that comes from the higher end pommels.  I don't think it would ever be a waste of funds. 

I gave you a point for the Blue-Green color you chose.  I love everything Blue and SRD falls into my Blue shades that I approve!  Have a great day and happy sabering!

I like the way that the catalyst pommel looks on that hilt. I have a dominix (same body different color) and I have the dark catalyst pommel for that. I think it compliments the choke points and continues the motif.

This one agrees with the Hidden One.  Really does do the saber justice.
