Greetings Everyone

Got my new Dark Standard Issue V3 Staff in today. and finally was able to put it down as well as pull my camera out of my car  to take a few pics and do this review. So yeah first the specs I ordered it with.

Dark Standard Issue v3 Staff

[Blade LED Color:Sentinel Yellow]
[Blade 2 Color:Sentinel Yellow]

Prior to ordering the staff I was debating on if I should get in Sentinel Yellow or Fire Orange which I was debating for the past two weeks look around the forums and what not. Finally decided on Sentinel Yellow because I wanted something unique and I already had a PO Bellicose so I already have a orange of some type. And plus seeing Kham's and Manroon's sabers at WonderCon also gave the color a edge over FO. Love the color

[Blade Length:Initiate 24"]
[Blade Option:Heavy Grade]

Having handle my friends regular standard issue staff with 32 inches blades I felt there were a little long for my taste (I'm 5'8" btw) so I decide to go with initiates so I handle the staff easier, plus it would be easier to duel wield as well.
 
[Battery Configuration:Li-Ion Staff Setup with BuckPuck (Batteries & Universal Charger Included)]
I already have Li-ion setup in my other saber so getting this was a non-issue.

[Hilt 1 Model:WITH Vertical Grooves Version]
[Hilt 2 Model:WITH Vertical Grooves Version]

Felt the regular look was a little too simple, so opted for the vertical grooves since it was no added charge. And I am very glad I did. Love the look and couldn't be happier

[Flash on Clash Hilt 1:No Flash][Flash on Clash Hilt 2:No Flash][Tip::Round Tip (Normal Lead Time)][Install Batteries:No Thanks, Got My Own][Include Retention Screw Wrench:No Thanks][Coupler:Standard Pommel (No Sound)][Hilt 1 Pommel:Regular Solid Pommel (No Sound)][Hilt 2 Pommel:Regular Solid Pommel (No Sound)][Hilt 1 Sound:No Sound][Hilt 2 Sound:No Sound]

Did not get sound with this one since I did not have the budget for it and plus I already have two Dominix V3's with sound so if I wanted a staff with sound I can just get a vented coupler and combine the Dominix. Man its been a while since I last got a saber without sound, lol

Have not actually had a chance to test the staff just yet, going to do that tomorrow with some of my friends. And hopefully I can also find my tape measure so I can give you the full length of the staff for those wishing to know the technical data.

But yeah I couldn't  be more happier with the sabers. And of course UltraSabers' Processing speed, Ordered Last Wednesday Night, and it was build and shipped out on thursday.

Note: It was also shipped out by UPS. Not that I ever really had any issues with them. Then again I do live in So-Cal so it takes about two days for sabers get to my house and long before anyone does to play dumb and try to see if they can bent a box without breaking it.

And here are the pics


The Hilts-Again Love the look


Color from the Emitter


Color of the entire blade

Hope you guys found this review helpful. And I will have more input on how the saber handles after tomorrow night. =D

Great review Shy.

Those are some fantastic pictures of the color; glad that seeing SY in person helped your decision.

Here is your point. Grin

You also get another point for getting initiate blades.

I assume you're going to dual wield them. Grin

love your staff, i was originally thinking of getting the Dark Arbiter but after thinking about it for a couple days i changed it to a dark standard issue v3. No sound though in fire orange.
