« on: November 18, 2017, 09:23:20 PM »

I just got a Bellicose, and after swinging it around a bit, I took out the blade to make sure I knew how to swap the blade with a blade plug. I found out that the retention screw doesn't hold the blade directly. Instead, it holds a metal sleeve, which then has two retention screws that hold the blade. My initiate from over a year ago didn't have this setup, so now I'm confused.

Is the blade sleeve a normal feature these days, or specific to some models/configurations of sabers?

Is it possible for me to get another one of these sleeves so that I can have one attached to the blade, and one attached to the blade plug?

(Sorry if this has been talked about elsewhere. I wasn't sure what search term would find the thread I needed)

No, only some sabers have such a so-called blade holder. It's hold by the outer retention screw, and the blade holder itself holds the blade with two screws.

AFAIK only the Raven blade holders are sold separately. But you can ask Emory (info@ultrasabers.com) if there's a possibility to get a second.

I have one. I had to order a Raven plug, and in the instructions I had to specify it was supposed to be a Bellicose and whether I wanted black or silver.

As has been suggested, though, run it by US in order to make sure this is still the procedure.

Some of the emitters (as Ultrasabers calls them, or blade holders as others do) hide the retention screws for the saber.  For example, with the Menace you must unscrew the cap, and slide that off followed by a shroud in order to access the screws.
