I bought my first lightsaber for Halloween of 2016 and got the ultraedge mid grade blade. I just received my second lightsaber yesterday with the same blade but it's not the same blade?? As in it feels, looks, and possibly even lights up differently. It's been a long time since I've been up to date on the latest US stuff, so was there a change in manufacturing that I don't know about?

Can you provide comparison photos, and possibly order details for both orders? There are 4 types of blades. None to my knowledge have changed

I know they changed the tips... moved to a screw-on kind. Thats the only change I am aware of though.

Every now and then they might accidentally give you a heavy grade or mid grade when you order the other one.

Compare the bottoms of your 2 blades side by side and see if one is thicker. That would explain the feel and even a slight dimmer appearance of the thicker blade.

I think what happened is that I got a heavy grade instead of mid. That seems to be it. Thanks for your input guys. Smiley

That and you can't really see that pretty inner core glow much like before anymore even in the Ultra Edge blades, I've noticed that's changed some too which is kind of a bummer. At lease you got one show saber and one heavy dueling saber to mess around with though =]

For the record, on the left is a Heavy Grade and on the right is a Midgrade. Notice the thickness. This definitely affects brightness.
