Title: Shortening the blade? Post by: darth_nogg on January 14, 2011, 10:51:05 PM So I regret not asking about this before I ordered my grab bag saber, but a 34 inch blade so far has shown to be perfect, at least for me. I shortened my blade to that length, but the film inside will fall out now if I'm not careful when I detach the blade. A 34 incher is so much more comfortable for things like quick inverted figure 8's. For future reference, if I were to put in the order comments that I would like the blade shortened, would that be possible? I'm not sure what you guys did to get the film to stick in there.

Someone cracked their tip and he wrote about how to repair it. I'd look for it and paste it for you but I'm watching the loser Patriots lose right now so sadly you're on your own. Just look around and you should find it, just look over topics asking about blade tips and you'll find it. Sorry for not being more helpful but you've got a lead now!
