[Give Light Side Points!]

Got 'em; so stoked! So, to recap briefly, ordered 2 sabers last Friday. Never owned one before and the intent was that these would be for my kids (more on that in a second). So, I ordered:
Aeon LE V3 - VA color - full length ultraedge blade. Impressions - Wow! As everyone on earth has said, this Aeon V3 hilt is just sssooooooo smooth and nice! I love the way this thing feels in your hand. Balances beautifully, feels great swinging it and my hands naturally move into the choke points. I don't see how it can get much better than this for a practice/stunt/dueling saber. It's no frills and utilitarian, but the silver/gold hilt and the purple blade color go well together and still make it look like...an elegant weapon, haha.
One grab bag saber which was: Dominix LE V2 - BR color - no blade (will order short ones next order). Impressions - Cool; this is perfect! This one is for my young son and he loves anything Sith/Dark Side related so i was hoping for a black hilt, or preferably an LE for the nice black/silver contrast. US must have been feeling the vibe when I requested Blazing Red and my son will flip out for it. This Dominix is the V2 version which I wouldn't have bought intentionally, but it's for a little boy who isn't going to upgrade to sound anyway and most importantly, it looks wicked! Of course, it's almost the same length as the V3 and feels comfortable in the hand, although I like the choke points on the V3 a lot. This one doesn't have a blemish or a scratch on it; it's perfect, oh, and it has a red (aluminum) activator button on it which looks really good, considering the blade color.
Thanks, Ultrasabers!
So, now, what do I do next? I have some decisions to make, because while the Aeon V3 was intended to be for my daughter, during a visit to the US website last night for some browsing, she decided that she wanted a black/silver hilt...in GREEN! Ha! Looks like we may be ordering a companion Dom LE V2 for her in a green color, and maybe my wife will keep this purple Aeon...which leaves me to my saber...
Congrats on your first sabers! This good story continues to get better...excited to see what the family will get next  My son loves his US, lots of good family times to come for you guys! |

It's not exactly a color I would want, but still pretty cool your freebie came with a rare color. Got any female relatives you want to get into sabering?

I felt a great disturbance in the force as if millions of nerds cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced.

I requested pink. I have 2 sisters, one likes purple and the other likes pink. I already have 2 purple sabers so I got this one in pink.
They both could care less about Star Wars, so I'm holding on to their lightsabers for them!

Ah, I see. I assumed by the eye rolling it wasn't something you would have asked for. |

Aeon LE V3 in either SRD or AB. Not sure which. Looks kinda green-ish in real life.    This is my first saber~ |

The hilt that went to my mate was a DSI with vertical grooves in Hot Pink. It doesn't look it in the pic, but it is.   |
