Title: Ultrasabers Polycarbonate Ultra Optical Blade
Post by: toddshogun on March 04, 2011, 05:10:52 PM
What is exactly is a "Ultrasabers Polycarbonate Ultra Optical Blade"??  Is that a fancy way of saying mid-grade clear polycarbonate blade?  Thanks anyone who can answer.  ::Looks to Ultra::

That's what it sounds like to me. Where'd you get that name from?

Master Yoda of FX-Sabers listed his recent Graflex auction with that US blade type.  He usually includes an UltraEDGE or, less frequently, a Corbin blade with his Graflex pieces. I bid on this auction, but totally lost my butt tonight when it hit $2195. Anyway here's the link:

I'm bid #1 and my tail between my legs.... ;D

The Ultra Optical Blade is what we now call our standard Ultra Blades.

LOL!  I hear you. Ultrasabers are hard to beat in value and quality. But it's been a personal goal of mine to land one of those CF-equipped Yoda Vintage Graflexes  however. It ended up selling for close to $2700 shipped, about $1200 more than the last one only 2 months ago. Out of my price range by a wide margin.

The Ultra Optical Blade is what we now call our standard Ultra Blades.

I figured as much.  The photo of the Graflex with blade attached looked alot like the standard issue blade.  GREAT NAME!! Considering it's a favorite by many I am glad you decided to set it apart from the UltraEdge a bit more.
