So I just received my Crimson Reaper in the mail today. It is a stunt version with FO and a midgrade blade. Now I guess you can call this a review but it is more of a what can you do with a Crimson Reaper and all its parts. They were not kidding about the hole in the pommel your power and or sound pack will NOT be falling out! It is pure genius the way Ultrasaber solved the problem of slanted emitters not lining up! Bravo guys!

But first the Crimson Reaper itself is amazing right out the box! So what is the first thing I do...Well take it apart of course!


Yes there are nine parts! (I didn't remove the claws and the inner pommel ring so you see six) Smiley I do love the the emitter part holding the claw can be adjusted so it matches the pommel claw! One thing I do have to say is this bad boy is long here is a size comparison with my other ultra sabers.

The Malice has the small claws for a size reference.
Now the fun part ...emitter and pommel swaps ok so the pommel claw looks awesome on.......

The Manticore! If my manticore looks funny it is because it has a dark green leather wrap that has be waxed and  heat shrinked  onto the hilt to show
detail.

and the Initiate v3 honestly one of the best single handed sabers around with the Reaper pommel! NOW THIS IS SICK! a little customization and you could have and evil saber hilt now image it as a dark initiate v3 and a reaper pommel!


and here are some others.mixes of the overlord,malice etc:)






and last but not least the crimson reaper without the shroud/grip which personally I kinda like it is really sleek looking!


I hope this helps It goes to show you how much you can customize with Ultrasabers!

I know there probably isn't close to enough room in the hilt, but in that one I would totally want to put a blade in both ends!

Great semi-review!

Hows the weight of the saber?
Easy to one hand or is it like a Raven or Malice and a two handed saber?

It is very light! as light as my overlord. and my manticore is heavier that the reaper. For dual wielding I can honestly say you will have no problem with it. and you can make it even lighter by taking the shroud off.

Great review. Gives me a better look at what the reaper is and what it's capable of. One has to decide whether to get the crimson as an awesome and different stand alone saber or get it in black to make swapping parts easier to match.

Swords, in all my time on the forums, I have never thought to do a review with the saber disassembled as much as possible.  That was a stroke of genius and super helpful.  I upped you a point for that awesomeness.  Thanks for the review.

Thanks guys. I wish my video worked but my camera seems to not like taking video. I still haven't done a video review for any of my sabers yet.

Just tried mine (arrived today also).  Mine is a stunt with standard battery setup.  Unscrewed the pommel, battery pack slid right out.  By any chance are you trying to remove the slanted section of the pommel (via the two set screws) from the silver threaded section?
