My first Ultra Saber / Ultra Sabers random grab bag review - Aeon v4 without Win

[RedMileJedi]

Hey everyone. This is my first Ultra Saber and my first Ultra Saber video review.

I went with a random grab bag. I ended up getting an Aeon v4 without windows, and I couldn't be happier.

The review is very raw. I was really excited about getting this. Looks so bad ass on my office desk!

Well done on the review and good choice for a first saber.

I have two of the Aeon V4's (in BH) and have found them to be quite comfortable to spin and duel with. 

+1 for your review

Wasn't sure where to put this questions, so I figured my own review thread was a good idea since it applies to this very hilt.

I'm thinking of getting a blade for this hilt, for my 4 year old son. Light combat (play) dueling would apply.

So 2 questions:

1. Can I add a blade to this GRAB BAG hilt?

2. Which blade and length is recommended? Remember: it's for a 4 year old. Light/moderate "play" dueling.


Cheers!

Yes, blades can be ordered separately: https://www.ultrasabers.com/category-s/53.htm

For someone that age, I recommend an Initiate blade - prices start from $7 for the grab bag blade, which is probably all he needs as he'll likely be whacking it against things so it'll pick up scuffs fairly quickly. May want to get a spare, just in case!

Awesome! And how do I know how far down to put the bade? There's just a single thin allen/hex screw holding the blade plug right now. Will that screw be strong enough for a blade?

Nice! Next saber I get for myself will be an Aeon v4. The little screw will hold the blade just fine. On my Prophecy, I just slide the blade in until it meets resistance (against the LED) and then tighten the screw. (Well the 2 screws on that one...)
