I've seen 2 Lightsabers from Ultrasabers with a curved hilt.  One is the Mantis, which from what I've read is a beautiful saber, but is heavy, bulky, and contains lots of sharp edges and is tough to keep clean.  On the other hand, you have the Curved Reaper, which is slick, lean, and not available.

What are the chances of Ultrasabers adding a leaner curved hilt to their lineup in the near-ish future?

Not sure if they will add another one. The Curved Reaper you can get at shows but I wouldn't call a Reaper slick or lean. You can make it lean but it doesn't come that way.

No one knows but Ultrasabers and Emory. However, I do how we get one or the curved Reaper on the shop site soon, I really want a curved saber.

I've considered a curved reaper, tho I would like to see a smaller curved option.

@Kai... It is still there and will be there for a L O N G while!  With that price point you would think it was made of gold.

Well I decided to get the Mantis anyway.  I was a bit under the $750 for a free mystery box saber in the most recent sale, so I figured why not try it out.

That Mantis is a bad azz saber.  You will love it!  I only own the emitter but I enjoyed all the videos on Youtube of people swinging that  thing around!

Pt for sharing your newest purchase!

I would LOVE if Ultrasabers made a more basic curved hilt, more akin to their simpler V3 and V4 sabers.  I'd be all over that!  Of course, smaller hilts mean less space, and as someone who has installed curved hilts in the past, the curvature already makes things frustrating enough.  More install difficulty usually means more time, which translates to more cost.

Still, hope it happens!

I wouldn't be worried about the cost.
