I think a better phrase would be "overpriced flashlight that can be used to beat people up with".

Ha ha,  that is funny!  That feels like it needs to be in a movie like "The Christmas Story". Some kid is getting beat up in the sixties or seventies, by a toy saber.

I was thinking more of a home alone style using a HG blade US hilt lol

I have no doubt of that. I do, too... maybe too much. Did I just say that?! Noooooooooo... you can never love Ultra Sabers and Star Wars too much.

That would be fun to watch. The HG blade, though, lethal.  😆

Welcome! Glad to see you've received plenty of advice - even if it's everyone is contradicting everyone else! Cheesy

The great thing is that you have plenty of choice. I've tried FOC, Emerald and tri-cree at various times, and keep coming back to FOC as it feels the most 'real' to me. I always intended to have several 'sabres (not as many as I have now, granted) so Emerald is less of a deal for me - I have quick disconnects and swap my LEDs around to get different colours. As for tri-cree... I don't think it's worth sacrificing flash for, overall, but I do see the appeal for those who don't care for flash.

I'd recommend going for FOC on your first 'sabre, at least, especially given the deal on it right now Smiley
