Hello there saber enthusiast, I just signed up so I could participate in the raffle while ordering my very first sabre. Honestly I did not plan to order fro ultrasaber at first, faving seen blades at other sites I liked more, buut.. then I came on the forum, and got to see how much nicer and welcoming people her are, compared to other places, and also getting to see members's pictures and videos of the sabers sold here, I was just blown away by how much better they actually looked compared to some of the fotos in shop. So after a lot of considering and staring at my wallet (just the thought of shiping costs to Norway is an absolute pain), I decided to order an initiate le v4, it looks absolutely gorgeous, with sound, Sunrider's destiny and silver flash on clash, and also I got a grab bag at the side as well. Am so looking forward to it arriving in the mail.

Welcome to the forum.
You had my attention with the mention of Hoth. I just loved ESB and the Hoth battle. Anyway, I have the Dark Initiate LE and I have to agree, the pics don't really do it justice. I liked it much more in hand than I did just looking at pics. Besides that, the Obsidian sound is awesome and SRD is a great color choice. You won't be disappointed.

I felt a great disturbance in the force as if millions of nerds cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced.
Integrity can accommodate the inadvertent error and the honest difference of opinion; it cannot accommodate deceit or subordination of principle.

Welcome to the forum, fellow "over-the-pond"er! SRD is a great colour, I'm waiting for my next saber to ship in exactly that colour. The initiates are great hilts, as Molina says the pics on the site don't do them justice! And your F5 Tracking Update game begins in 3....2....1.....

Thanks guys : with the one meter (3feet) of snow outside my window, I'd say Hoth is rather fitting I am very exited about the colour, on the pictures it looks a lot like the sable I always used back when playing kotor 1 & 2, and hearing that it looks better in person I am really looking forward to seeing it myself

Welcome, Gillera! Sunrider's Destiny is one of my favourite blade colours - and as a bonus, it tends to photograph really well Looking forward to seeing some photos of your acquisition, and good luck in the raffle

Welcome to the forums and congrats on getting one of US newest sabers the V4. I have the Dominix V4 and it feels amazing in the hands you'll love your Initiate! Mine is also in SRD I must live on the other side of Hoth (Canada) as I am used to 3ft of snow here as well!

You'r all so kind Hehe I actually had a lot of questions at first, but after some hours creeping on the forum, my hunger of knowledge has been sated, at least for now. Hazard, you better ready yourself for the winter, and the return of the wampas then, or at least keep a saber close at hand

Welcome bro/sis (profile was vague). Congrats on the new saber. I'm partial to red, but I love my Emerald Mantis. I don't have to settle on one color. SRD is a nice pick. You should try it with a mid-grade blade. The clear plastic gives the blade a cool aura look.
You made the right choice coming here. I've never experienced this level of commitment to a business. US has unparalleled customer service. Emery (aka Deep on the forum) will answer any question personally. I know this because I grilled him thoroughly before making my first purchase, so I knew exactly what I was getting into. The members on Saber Forum are always eager to provide customer reviews and customization support (not to mention mad props for new acquisitions). And finally, their product line is astounding. I've already aquired 5 sabers (3 for myself), the craftsmanship is superb. The components are top notch. The shipping is lightning fast. And the price is right. And if you ask the right questions, they'll hook you up with just about anything. Like the 4" piece of blade tube I turned into a custom blade-plug for my Scorpion.
You're in good hands here.

I am glad to hear that And having just read that I won a grab bag in the raffle I am absolutely extatic, and maybe just a little bit worried that this will be a jumpstart straight into an extreme addiction..

Yeah... on the addiction note. You are in the worst company of enablers imaginable. And don't listen to Qui-Lar. He is the worst example of temperence i've met. Just look at his list. He said he acquired it within a year's time.
