Title: Dark Apprentice Dark Initiate Post by: MaulKiller on December 31, 2010, 11:07:07 PM I am curious as the the whereabouts of the curved hilt sabers??? will Ultra be bringing them back or would they be something scored in a grab bag sale if one were lucky enough to recieve one??? any info on this would be greatly appreciated

I haven't been to ultrasabers.com in a few months, but I popped in yesterday to buy the curved-hilt saber I remember seeing... there were tears. To encourage the powers that be to bring back the curved hilt, I'd like to say that you've lost my business due to the lack of a curved hilt (other than the FXDooku)... but that Phantasm is looking so good ;D Damn you Ultrasabers! Title: Re: Dark Apprentice Dark Initiate Post by: Ultra on January 03, 2011, 10:52:03 PM We are exploring the possibility of a curved metal hilt with our machinists. Bending aluminum is a bit difficult, and steel would be heavy. We are working on it, and when we have some news, we'll let you know.

Or at least enough greenback to snatch up a couple. Title: Re: Dark Apprentice Dark Initiate Post by: darth badam on January 04, 2011, 03:41:54 AM i second the notion on curved hilts
Title: Re: Dark Apprentice Dark Initiate Post by: Hobb on January 04, 2011, 06:50:03 PM I never actually thought of using a curved hilt, but if they were brought back I may have to try one out.
Title: Re: Dark Apprentice Dark Initiate Post by: Lord_BoOgEyMaN on January 04, 2011, 06:51:55 PM im the same way, im not to sure of the curved hilt, not sure how it would feel in my hands while battling with it, I feel like my grip wouldnt be the best
Title: Re: Dark Apprentice Dark Initiate Post by: Oz Drift3r on January 04, 2011, 11:17:24 PM If anyone has one of these old UltraSaber curved hilts..... they should throw some pictures and a review up so we can see how they are to hold, spin and duel with?
Just a thought. Title: Re: Dark Apprentice Dark Initiate Post by: HannaMagi on January 05, 2011, 06:46:38 AM Count me in for the curved handles also.
I picked up an Asajj Ventress saber a little while ago. I didn't really think it would be, but man is that comfortable to hold. Title: Re: Dark Apprentice Dark Initiate Post by: Darth Dexuis on May 08, 2011, 12:18:55 AM I'm guessing from the amount of time from the last post to mine and no news from Ultra that the curved hilt is not making a return?? I'd get one in a heartbeat if they made a return.

Bending aluminum is a bit difficult, and steel would be heavy. We are working on it, and when we have some news, we'll let you know. I'm a little suprised that you can't find it pre-bent in bulk, such as in loops or rolls, but I don't know what your supplier is like, or what it would cost extra. Title: Re: Dark Apprentice Dark Initiate Post by: Darth Wraith on May 09, 2011, 03:53:30 AM I echo the wish for curved hilts within the Ultrasabers Armory. But I am willing to wait for the bets possible outcome in this case, no matter how long that takes.
